Michael has never seen a whale - at least, not a real one. Everyone knows they disappeared from the waters around the little island of Liberty years ago. But then a mysterious stranger comes to Liberty and offers Michael what he's always dreamed of: his very own boat. All he has to do in return is help the stranger find the whales - and promise to never tell a soul. Michael is about to learn that sometimes dreams come at a price....

Story
Lena has lived her whole life near the beach, walking for miles up and down the shore and breathing the salty air, swimming in the cold water, and watching the surfers rule the waves. The problem is, she's spent her whole life just watching. As her 16th birthday approaches, Lena vows she will no longer watch from the sand: she will learn to surf. But her father, a former surfer himself, refuses to allow her to take lessons. After a near drowning in his past, he can't bear to let Lena take up the risky sport. Yet something lures Lena to the water - an ancient, powerful magic.

Imagine a tiny island far out in the Atlantic Ocean off the west coast of Scotland. On some days, you can hardly see where the sea ends and the land begins, just a blue-grey mist of sea spray and wind-blown sand. There is nothing but ocean between there and America. And about 65 kilometres out to sea, one last remote outcrop of islands and sea stacks, with the highest sea cliffs anywhere in the UK - St Kilda - the islands at the edge of the world.
