Beneath the Painted Sky: The Willow Creek Series, Book One

By Romy Lynskey

"In Willow Creek, the water doesn't just flow-it whispers."

Fifteen-year-old Lily is the town's best guide, a professional at navigating both the rugged coast and a "financial tightrope". She's desperate for a way out of her small-town life, but some paths are better left untravelled. When she takes on the tenacious Dr. Olivia Mercer as a client, Lily's simple guide gig spirals into a dangerous hunt for the impossible.

Olivia and her team of experts aren't just here for the scenery They are chasing the "Pool of Echoes"-a hidden cove pulsing with a bioluminescence that science can't explain. Their search leads to a reclusive artist with a forbidden past and a collection of secret paintings that someone is willing to kill to keep hidden.

As a rare lunar eclipse approaches, the glowing waters begin to churn with something ancient. Loyalties will shift, and hearts will break as the town's secrets finally come to light. Will they solve the mystery of the painted sky, or will they be consumed by what hides in the dark?

A spellbinding tale of secrets, science, and the extraordinary things hidden just beneath the surface.
