For generations, whispers of the enigmatic ‘Marsh Girl’ have circulated through Barkley Cove, a serene coastal community in North Carolina. When Chase Andrews, a well-liked resident, is discovered deceased in late 1969, the townspeople’s immediate suspicion falls upon Kya Clark, the very woman they’ve dubbed the ‘Marsh Girl’. However, Kya is far more than the local gossip suggests. Possessing a keen intellect and a sensitive spirit, she has cultivated a solitary existence for years within the very marsh she considers her home, forging friendships with the seabirds and drawing wisdom from the shifting sands. Eventually, a deep longing for love blossoms within her. As two young men from town find themselves captivated by her untamed allure, Kya begins to embrace the possibility of a new life. But then, the unthinkable occurs. Praised by the New York Times Book Review as “painfully beautiful,” this novel skillfully weaves together a murder mystery, a poignant coming-of-age story, and a profound celebration of the natural world. It stands as an “astonishing debut,” according to People.
