![]() ![]() We follow Jade and her friend, Bates on their journey to the inland town, through the troubles of death, grief, a missing sister and a mysterious treasure. ![]() ![]() The hope is that this will be a temporary state of affairs and that they will be able to return after the floods have receded. Our protagonist, Jade, aged 12, has to travel inland like the rest of her beach dwelling neighbours for protection as the water rises. The book takes place about 30 years in the future after an ecological disaster caused by the melting of the ice caps. This book is aimed at a younger audience, I would say but should appeal to a broad base of young adult readers. I’ve been able to recommend them to students on many occasions. I chose to request this book because I had read and thoroughly enjoyed two of Ms Cassidy’s other books, Looking for JJ and its sequel. Thank you to the author, the publisher and Netgalley for giving me this ebook in return for a review. ![]()
