The wild beneath

"Annie MacLeod always knew she was different, growing up on a sailboat in the Pacific Northwest, navigating by the stars and swimming in the ocean. But when a tsunami shatters her world and her parents are swept away, Annie is stranded on land, grief-stricken and forced to confront just how unconventional she is, despite her enduring love for her childhood sweetheart, Evan. In the wreckage, she rescues a wordless man named Walker, who emits a hum only she can hear. Their connection is instant, elemental. When Walker disappears--along with any explanation he might hold about who she really is--Annie is forced to decide between evacuating with Evan or staying to unlock a secret that feels vital to her survival. Six years later, Annie has buried the past. But when Walker's otherworldly sound returns, it forces a reckoning with the wild life she's left behind. Is the truth of the ocean more powerful than she knows? The Wild Beneath is a spellbinding story of soulmates, homecoming and the ancient bonds that tie us all to the natural world."--
