Some Waves Destroy. Others Carry You Forward.
In 2004, twelve-year-old Aallotar survives the Indian Ocean tsunami, but loses her parents, her brother, and the life she knew. Half a world away, a boy in San Francisco watches the news and can't look away. A chance encounter binds them forever.
Years later, they are adults shaped by loss: she a scientist battling the storms that destroyed her past, he a climate activist who never stopped believing in her. When they find each other again at a global climate summit, the connection they once shared resurfaces—but Aallotar has spent two decades learning that love is something waves take. Trusting it again may be the hardest thing she's ever done.
A novel of trauma, resilience, and second-chance love set against the growing realities of climate change, Lady of the Waves spans continents and decades to ask whether the heart can survive what the ocean couldn't take.
For readers of The Light Pirate by Lily Brooks-Dalton, The Sky Is Everywhere by Jandy Nelson, and The Island of Sea Women by Lisa See.
