"Eunice Wong's calm, deliberate narration accentuates what author Yume Kitasei does best--meticulous world-building. In a not-so-distant future, three sisters are growing up in a time when the oceans have risen, food is scarce, and multinational corporations rule the land and islands. When the two younger sisters discover a cryptic message from the older sister, they set off in a small sailboat across uncharted waters, slipping by pirates and mutant fish as they head for the sister's last known location. Environmental disasters, questionable scientific research, and the sisters' own tangled relationships abound. But no matter how apocalyptic the future, families will survive, and that is the affirming message Eunice Wong's voice so deftly reflects. B.P. � AudioFile 2025, Portland, Maine"
