Description

For years, rumors about the Swamp Girl stirred up Barkley Cove—a quiet town on the North Carolina coast. And when, in late 1969, the body of Chase, a local playboy, was found, the townspeople immediately suspected Kia Clark—the girl who had lived as a recluse in the swamps since early childhood. Sensitive and intelligent, Kia truly calls the swamp home and the swamp birds, fish, and animals her friends. But when the time comes to grow up, Kia discovers an entirely different side of life: the desire to love and be loved awakens in her. And Kia gladly plunges into this unknown new world—until the unimaginable happens. Delia Owens’s acclaimed novel is a real ode to nature, a tender story about growing up, a novel about loneliness and about the connection between people, and whether people even need each other—while at the same time it is a dark, mysterious tale of a murder that may or may not have occurred.
