Description:

An exploration of love and loss, an unforgettable evocation of Newfoundland's southern shore. The novel opens with two fishermen discovering a baby floating on an ice pan in the 1912 North Atlantic. Named Aurora, the baby grows up in a small fishing outport, Drook, where she is regarded as mysertious and enchaned, a free spirit who does not quite belong. Who is the "real" Aurora and where did she come from?
