Narrated by Holly Palance and Imani Parks
Two stories are told, Eliza and her grandmother Mora, and the siren Silverswift. Appropriately told through two voices as narrators.
Nice worldbuilding for the Sirens, their traditions and struggles. A quiet sort of story with suspense and heartache and sacrifices, and the struggles that mirror between cultures and times as young girls grow up and learn what and who they are.
Eliza loves the island where her grandmother lives, and when she gets a summons from her grandmother, asking for her help during winter holidays break, she is glad to go, despite the rigors of winter on an island. The quest isn't easy, when her grandmother is losing her sight and a storm is battering the island -- and the map they're using might not be reliable. But they are determined to find the mysterious cove where the Sirens come to sing at winter solstice, no matter what.
