Where the Crawdads Sing by Delia Owens

A Lonely Marsh Girl Becomes A Murder Suspect

Good Condition - Reading creases to spine, light rubbing and edge wear, slight cover curl.

For years, people in Barkley Cove have spread rumours about Kya Clark, the isolated girl who lives in the North Carolina marsh. Abandoned and forced to fend for herself, Kya learns from the wildlife and tides around her, developing a deep understanding of the natural world. As she grows older, her longing for human connection draws two young men into her life. Then the discovery of Chase Andrews's body brings the town's suspicion directly to her door. Combining a coming-of-age story with a murder mystery, Delia Owens explores prejudice, loneliness and desire in a landscape whose beauty is inseparable from the harsh demands of survival.
