"A young girl is spending a summer at the lake and experiencing the worlds she finds (and imagines) both under the water and above. From striped rocks under the surface to water snails, crayfish to gulls, loons and swallows flying overhead she sees all the life around the watery habitat. And who knows what creatures can be found in the deepest waters."--Provided by publisher.
In 1899, 12-year-old Agatha is cast out of her ancestral home by her cruel cousin and while adjusting to her new fate, learns that the local lake is haunted by a young girl who could hold the key to Agatha's true identity.
Everyone who lives near the lake knows the stories about the world underneath it, an ethereal landscape rumored to be half-air, half-water. But Bastian Silvano and Lore Garcia are the only ones who've been there. Bastian grew up both above the lake and in the otherworldly space beneath it. Lore's only seen the world under the lake once, but that one encounter changed their life and their fate. Then the lines between air and water begin to blur. The world under the lake drifts above the surface. If Bastian and Lore don't want it bringing their secrets to the surface with it, they have to stop it, and to do that, they have to work together. There's just one problem: Bastian and Lore haven't spoken in seven years, and working together means trusting each other with the very things they're trying to hide.
