Creatures
Save for time spent working at the mainland's Sea Institute, Evie has lived all her days on Winter Island...Heavily influenced by the weather and wildlife of this ruggedly beautiful place, Van Meter's wonderfully un-ordinary debut is rather like the ocean itself: layered, deep, and happening all at once. When it begins, it's Evie's wedding weekend and she must deal with two unexpected presences—her flighty mom, and a whale corpse rotting in the bay just outside her window—and the worrying absence of her fisherman husband-to-be.
