Synopsis

“The Laboon once swallowed whole villages. When the crabs crawl to the forest and the birds stop singing and the tide disappears into the mist, you must run.”

A deadly tide of junk is pouring down the street, sucking in life and spewing out death. Caught up in the cataclysmic event, sea gypsy Marti and English tourist Krista are torn apart from their families and their destinies become entwined. Krista’s holiday to paradise has turned into a fight for survival. Facing love and loss, Marti finds out the true meaning of sacrifice and in the midst of devastation, there is healing and hope.

This compelling novel is set in Thailand and is inspired by survivor stories after the 2004 Indian Ocean Tsunami.
