Only the Ocean

The two girls sat at opposite ends of the boat and Kel dug and stretched the oars into the ocean like her life depended upon it because it did.

'Just so you know,' said Rose, 'everything, I mean everything, is your fault.'

15-year-old Kel Crow lives in a water-logged world, with a family with whom she shares nothing but blood and a heart defect that she knows could kill her any day.

She has a plan to escape, and it's a good one: stowaway on the ship, kidnap the girl, swap the girl to buy passage to America and a life-saving operation. But plans never go how they're meant to …

Breath-takingly fierce, smart and tender, Only the Ocean is a story of innocence (and its loss), survival, and courage in the midst of darkness.

Cele doua fete stateau la capetele opuse ale barcii si Kel a sapat si a intins vaslele in ocean, asa cum viata ei depindea de ea, pentru ca da. „Doar ca sa stii”, a spus Rose, „totul, vreau sa spun totul, este vina ta.” Kel Crow, in varsta de 15 ani, traieste intr-o lume inconjurata de apa, cu o familie cu care nu imparte nimic altceva decat sange si inima. defect despre care stie ca ar putea sa o omoare in orice zi. Are un plan de a scapa si este unul bun: clandestin pe nava, rapita fata, schimba fata pentru a cumpara trecere in America si o operatiune de salvare a vietii.
