It's just a feeling, enigmatic and puzzling, yet it haunts her like a second self. "You have a special connection with animals," her mother told her. "You are an Empath-trust yourself." But how can fifteen-year-old Sammy Carlisle trust the peculiar feelings that make her different? When their mother dies, Sammy and her younger brother, Loren, are sent to live on a secluded island near Seattle, Washington with their Uncle Teddy, a handsome, single, bush pilot, in the San Juan Islands. Despite being surrounded by people who love her, Sammy is sad, angry, and isolated from everything, except the miraculous sea life around her. Life, however, leaves no time to grieve. From the moment, she climbs into Uncle Teddy's float plane, Sammy's world is turned upside down. Terrified (this is Sammy's first airplane flight) she is stunned to learn Uncle Teddy has also arranged to transport an injured six-hundred-pound sea lion back to the islands. When they pick up the sea lion, she meets a six-foot-tall Fish and Wildlife officer, who is a female Indiana Jones, and a petite doctor from Animal Crime Scene Investigation-two powerful women who begin to form her new family. >Sammy reports her concern about the sick seal to Uncle Teddy but is ignored. To console herself, she seeks refuge on a lonely beach where danger is not far away. On the beach, she finds another sick seal and is confronted by two young men who try to discourage her from learning more about the seal. But Sammy is stubborn and persists in her quest to learn the truth. Through the local boat-dock-store owner, Liz, Sammy meets a flamboyant marine biologist who believes Sammy's concern about the seals, and who knows a great deal more about Sammy's empathic sensitivity to animals. But special sensitivity is not necessarily protection, and Sammy's dogged determination creates enemies, especially with the fisherman who are killing seals and sea lions, and who will do anything to protect their Salmon fishing grounds. In a desperate attempt to keep her quiet, they kidnap Sammy, and her final adventure begins-she must fight for her life. Whether Sammy lives or dies depends on her courage, strength, belief in herself, and in her new family, both above and below the water's surface. "This story of Samantha, her life, the loss of her mother, and coming to accept and use her wonderful empathic gift, is a total treasure. I love this girl. I have no idea why the internet isn't on fire, talking about this wonderful story." -J.L. "This book was a fantastic, fun read! It was well written, had a great pace and kept me interested throughout the entire book ... can't wait for the second book." -B. "Exciting, inspiring, full of adventure and emotion ... Perfect." -C.A.T.
