Book
First Marysue Rucci Books hardcover edition.

As Lewis develops the features and impulses of one of the most predatory creatures in the ocean, his complicated artist's heart struggles to make peace with his unfulfilled dreams.

In the present, all of Wren's grief eventually collides, and she is forced to make an impossible choice"--
