Young Adult Adventure | Young Adult
After the sailing camp owner's suicide, eight teens find
they have a boat to themselves. The 68 days of summer
remaining are full of memorable events: encounters with
wildlife and people, yacht races, pirate raids, a near fatal
hunt for treasure, onboard parties, romance, and a call to
heroism. Underlying the tale of adventures, however, is a
subtle yet powerful story of awakening, of teens on the cusp
of adulthood. They get to know that gap between who they are
and who they want to be by experiencing tests of physical,
emotional, and mental limits. A stirring debut, this novel
examines issues of late adolescence with authenticity that
will speak to YA readers.
