Where The Crawdads Sing (Hb) by Delia Owens

The New York Times Book Review calls Where The Crawdads Sing (Hb) by Delia Owens "painfully beautiful." Entertainment Weekly describes it as a "heart-wrenching" and "compelling love story," while People declares it "astonishing." Set in a quiet town on the North Carolina coast in 1969, the locals immediately suspect the so-called "Marsh Girl," Kya Clark, when a handsome man is found dead. But Kya is not what they say - she is a sensitive and intelligent survivor who has made her home in the marsh, finding solace in nature. However, when two young men from town take an interest in her, Kya begins to yearn for human connection. But when tragedy strikes, her newfound happiness is put to the ultimate test.
