With their father en route to Africa for Doctors Without Borders,
city-kids Nicholas and younger twin sisters Haley and Hetty are off
to spend the summer with their Great-Uncle Nick at his house on
Forsaken Lake. Despite some initial doubts, Nicholas is right at
home in the country: he learns to sail, learns about his father as
a boy, and makes fast friends with a local-girl, the tomboy
Charlie.
The summer takes a turn toward the mysterious, though, when
Nicholas discovers an old movie that his father made as a boy: it
tells the story of the local legend, The Seaweed Strangler, but was
never finished. Before long Nicholas wants answers both about the
legend, and about the movie. Together, he and Charlie work to
uncover the truth and discover some long-buried family secrets
along the way.
In this lovely middle-grade novel, Michael D. Beil has invoked one
of his own favorites, "We Didn't Mean to Go to Sea," as well as
other great summer books of years-past.
