Coastal Mystery & Small-Town Trial | Fiction Blind Date with a Book

Abandoned by her entire family as a young child, a fiercely independent girl grows up completely isolated in the wild coastal wetlands of North Carolina.

As she grows into a brilliant, self-taught naturalist, two young men from town are drawn into her quiet world, sparking her first tender experiences with love. But when the town’s golden boy is found dead under suspicious circumstances, the community immediately turns its suspicion toward the strange girl living on the margins of their world, launching a high-stakes trial that unearths long-buried secrets.
