sea dreamer

For fourteen-year-old Cassie, life in Rewa Bay has always been idyllic, close to the sea and accompanied by poetry.  But now a lifelong friendship is falling apart, her feelings for Mac Rollerston remain unrequited, and a family wedding is looming.  Strange things start happening when she begins to research the story of her ancestor Sarah Cassandra Addison, a mysterious young woman who may or may not have been a pirate, and the call of the sea becomes ever stronger.
