Book excerpt: Fifteen-year-old Kat is more her father's housekeeper than his daughter. She must stay close to the hearth, cover her bright hair, and behave like a perfect future wife, for only by marrying well can she redeem her father's reputation. Most of all, she must stay far from Downshore and its savage people-and far from the sea, to which she is powerfully drawn. When at last she gives in to its call and steals to the beach, she finds a gravely injured young man: one of the Rigi, a tribe of half-forgotten seal-people. To save him she must defy her father and her community and ask the people of Downshore for help. But does she have the strength to stand on her own?
