Summary
Returning to Whisper Cove to attend theater camp and solve the mystery surrounding her mother's death 12 years earlier, 17-year-old Avril soon discovers the truth is ready to be revealed, but at a high price.
Twelve years ago Avril's mother drowned at Whisper Cove theater, just off the rocky Connecticut coastline. Local legend claims that the women in the waves-- ghosts from old whaling stories-- called her mother into the ocean with their whispering. Avril doesn't believe in ghosts, and has spent the years trying to make sense of the strange bits she does remember from that night: Stars falling into the sea. A blinding light. A tight grip on her wrist. The odd sensation of flying. Returning to Whisper Cove to find out the truth, Avril keeps meeting herself-- and her dead mother-- late at night, at the edge of the ocean. The truth will come at a terrible cost. -- adapted from jacket
