Wayward Children Book 10: Adrift in Currents, Clean and Clear

In the latest installment of the bestselling Hugo and Nebula Award-Winning Wayward Children series by Seanan McGuire, readers are taken on a journey filled with giant turtles, impossible ships, and a tidal river ridden by a Drowned girl in search of her family.

Nadya, the protagonist, had three mothers: the one who bore her, the country that poisoned her, and the one who adopted her. Nadya never felt less than whole until her adoptive parents fitted her with a prosthetic arm against her will, seeking to replace the one she had been missing from birth. The prosthetic was cumbersome, uncomfortable, and simply wrong. It was not Nadya.

Frustrated and unable to articulate her feelings, Nadya began to wander, until the day she fell through a door into Belyrreka, the Land Beneath the Lake. In this world of water, Nadya found herself surrounded by child-eating amphibians, majestic giant turtles, and impossible ships that sailed as easily beneath the surface as on top. It was in Belyrreka that Nadya finally felt understood for who she was: a Drowned Girl who had found her true home, accepted by the river and its people.

However, even in this newfound haven, Nadya soon discovered that there were still dangers and trials that she would have to face. She would have to fight to keep hold of everything she had come to treasure in this remarkable world.
