Description
When she witnesses a small child tumbling from a ferry into Lake Champlain, Troy Chance dives in without thinking. Harrowing moments later, she bobs to the surface, pulling a terrified little boy with her. As the ferry disappears into the distance, she begins a bone-chilling swim nearly a mile to shore with a tiny passenger on her back. Surprisingly, he speaks only French. Heĺl acknowledge that his name is Paul; otherwise, heś resolutely mute. Troy assumes that Paulś frantic parents will be in touch with the police or the press. But what follows is a shocking and deafening silence. And Troy, a freelance writer, finds herself as fiercely determined to protect Paul as she is to find out what happened to him. What she uncovers will take her into a world of wealth and privilege and heedless self-indulgenceá world in which the murder of a child is not unthinkable. Sheĺl need skill and courage to survive and protect her charge and herself. Sara J. Henryś powerful and compelling Learning to Swim will move and disturb readers right up to its shattering conclusion.
