Book excerpt: This is a middle-grade novella about the adventures and life cycle of a green sea turtle. We first encounter Tide mid-ocean, while en-route to her natal shore. Tide is a green sea turtle in her prime, and adorned with a rare golden carapace. Her story unfolds as she recalls the perilous events surrounding her birth and her maiden voyage to Sargasso Town. Sargasso Town is a mid-sea safe-haven for those hatchlings fortunate enough to find it. But here it seems Tide is destined for a solitary and nomadic life, until she is rescued by Tuesday and Curlew from the waters of Tiger Cove. It is then she is welcomed by their clan to the place they call the Square. But Sargasso Town is a transitory habitation and when the Square begins to break apart the gang is scattered. Even Tide and Tuesday, who have become devoted friends, are separated. From this time forward Tide lives a life at sea, crossing paths with a wide variety of her fellow creatures. Until one day, at her summer feeding grounds - a mystical coast where many animals gather - she encounters creatures of the two-legged variety. Some of these intend her harm, while others become her saviors. But after decades of life at sea will a reunion with Tuesday be part of her story? And what of the two-leggeds who once saved her? It is not until the closing pages of the epilogue, when a young girl finds a bottle washed up along the beach, that Tide's story comes full circle.
