Publisher's Synopsis
"The sea doesn't forget. And now, it's whispering back."
Captain Tully lives on the water in a floating shack held together by salt, secrets, and sheer stubbornness. The townsfolk of Windy Snout call him mad-but eleven-year-old Nixie Spoon isn't so sure. After all, the sea has been calling her too.
When Nixie sneaks aboard Tully's boat in search of answers, she sets off a chain of events that awakens something ancient, something powerful, and something very, very deep. Together, Tully and Nixie are pulled into a tide of forgotten truths, haunted compasses, and underwater trials that test the strength of memory and the price of honesty.
As the whisper of the sea grows louder, they must face the secrets they've buried-and decide what kind of story they want to leave behind.
Lyrical, hilarious, and quietly devastating, Captain Tully is a modern seafaring fable about unlikely families, unfinished hearts, and the stories the sea chooses to keep.
