When twelve-year-old Tabitha returns to the remote Shetland island of Papala, she expects adventure with her twin brother and friends – not trouble.
As their ferry approaches Papala, Tabitha discovers what appears to be a selkie skin drifting in the harbour. Local legend says the skin belongs to a mythical creature – half human, half seal – and that if it is not returned before midnight, the island will be cursed with generations of bad luck.
But Papala is already under threat. Pollution creeps along the coast, the bird sanctuary is at risk, and the island’s owner plans to sell. With time running out, Tabitha and her brother must uncover the truth and convince the islanders to protect their home.
Selkies - Self-confidence - Speaking up
A lyrical eco-adventure for readers who enjoy atmospheric island stories like The Storm Keeper’s Island by Catherine Doyle, with the adventurous spirit of Malamander by Thomas Taylor.
