A hurricane changes the course of a river and the life of a lonely girl in this nature-based mystery-adventure by the best-selling author of the Serafina series and the Willa series

Robert Beatty, a master at telling atmospheric tales of mystery and suspense set in the natural world, has crafted another ingenious, unputdownable story.

Thirteen-year-old Sylvia Doe has lived at the Highground Home for Children nearly all her life. Whenever the administrators try to place her with a foster family, she runs away—back to Mason, Highground’s caretaker and her best friend. The only place she feels like she belongs is with him and the horses he has taught her to love.

When a powerful storm causes the remote mountain valley where she lives to flood, Sylvia begins to encounter strange and wondrous things floating down the river. Glittering gemstones and wild animals that don’t belong—everything’s out of place. Then she spots an unconscious boy floating in the water.

As she drags him onto the shore and their adventure together begins, Sylvia wonders who he is and where he came from. And why does she feel such a strong connection to this mysterious boy?

    I am not really sure how to categorize this story. It is part fantasy, part history, part YA romance, and part mystery. The author did a great job explaining the different animals that were from different periods. The illustrated pages were fun and informative. I really enjoyed them and learned some new things. The different animals were from different times and places. The author also shows the impact of floods on the land and on the people affected. Sylvia is a great character, she needs a foster home but can not leave the home for children behind. Jorna was an interesting character. Sylvia does not realize how important he is to her. The flood chutes were amazing to think about and I could visualize the different scenes that Sylvia saw. My favorite part of the book was the plesiosaur fossil. I am giving this book a 5/5. It is fun, informative, and imaginative. I was given a copy to review, however all opinions are my own. I really loved this story!
