For sixteen-year-old Klara, a devastating flood reveals a dark family secret.

It is February 1953 in the Netherlands and Klara is expected to marry the son of a prominent farmer. In this small island community, steeped in tradition, the Church controls the lives of its citizens but Klara longs to escape for adventure on far away shores. When a spring tide merges with a brutal northwestern storm it causes the dikes to breach, unleashing death and destruction that will expose a dark family secret.

Martha Attema’ s award-winning novels are inspired by family experiences and historical events during WWII. Born in Friesland, the Netherlands, Martha moved to Canada in 1981 and settled in North Bay, Ontario. As a kindergarten teacher she wrote stories for her students eventually fulfilling her dream to become a published author.
