Summary
While at sea during a freak storm near his island home in the far north, a fisherman finds a baby girl, and though he and his wife love her as their own, they realize that they may not be able to keep her from returning to the sea
Amazon.com description: Product Description: A gift from the sea. Jannet is determined to keep that gift--the longed-for baby her husband rescued from a storm. But when little Gioga grows up and a mysterious stranger wearing a cloak of oceans arrives to claim her, Jannet's fierce love unleashes a tragic and terrifying train of events. As she battles for her child, the fury of the sea traps the little fishing community on its remote island, cut off from all human contact. The villagers' only hope of salvation lies in the truth of the old legends and a young girl's longing to return to her home. With its rich echo of ancient tales from Iceland, Scotland, and Ireland, Daughter of the Sea is a spellbinding story of haunting beauty and lyrical power.
