Tide of the Silent Deep

By: Cain, P. D.

Fourteen-year-old Sandy Marlin has always felt more at home on the water than off it - she can read the lagoon's moods the way other people read faces. So when she rescues an injured baby dolphin tangled in debris, wraps him in a towel too big for both of them, and names him Tide, she doesn't just save an animal. She opens a door.
Because Tide isn't afraid of storms, or nets, or even sharks. He's afraid of a sound - an ancient, grief-laden call rolling in from somewhere far to the north, sent by a scarred, decades-old whale matriarch who has lost everything the ocean was supposed to protect. And Sandy, almost alone among the adults around her, can feel exactly what that call means.
While her mother, marine biologist Dr. Talia Marlin, races to decode the science, and her father, Navy captain Owen Marlin, is ordered south with standing authorization to stop a threat he doesn't yet know is anchored in his own daughter's back yard, Sandy has to convince both of them - a scientist who trusts data, and an officer who trusts orders - that a fourteen-year-old's instincts might be the only early-warning system that actually works.
A countdown ticking inside a fault line. A family divided by an ocean and, now, drawn back together by one. And a girl who has to prove that being the one who listens isn't a weakness - it might be the only thing standing between the world and a tide no one else saw coming.
Tide of the Silent Deep is a heart-pounding, big-hearted adventure about family, courage, and the quiet power of paying attention - for readers who love a story where an ordinary kid turns out to be exactly the right person, in exactly the right place, to save what she loves. Perfect for animal-rescue fans, ocean-adventure fans, and anyone who believes a family can find its way back to itself.
