Kde zpívají raci
Author: Delia Owens, Delia Owensová
10,32 €
Kya Clark grows up alone in the coastal marshes of North Carolina, where nature provides both a home and a means of survival. Her longing for closeness gradually connects her with people nearby. When Chase Andrews is found dead, the town's prejudices quickly turn suspicion toward her.
As her family gradually leaves, Kya has to rely on her own abilities and knowledge of the wetlands. Observing animals and the natural world becomes part of her daily life and her way of thinking. Her friendship with Tate opens a path to reading and trusting another person.
Growing up brings a need for love, but also further experiences of abandonment. Her relationship with Chase connects her fate with the town that sees her as an outsider. The discovery of his body in 1969 opens a crime storyline and raises the question of how an outsider's reputation shapes suspicion. The novel combines coming of age, a natural setting, and the mystery of a death.
