The Turning Tide (Ages 8–12)

Twelve-year-old Molly Corrigan never asked to leave her old life behind, but after her parents' divorce, she finds herself in Seabrook—a coastal village where everyone knows everyone, and outsiders aren't welcome. When she capsizes on her very first sailing lesson and becomes the laughingstock of the Junior Sailors Club, Molly is ready to give up on the sea forever. But a chance friendship with a retired fisherman reveals a surprising connection to Seabrook's past, and suddenly Molly has a secret mission: prove she belongs by competing in the annual Junior Regatta. There's just one problem—someone wants to make sure she never gets the chance.
