Sea Glass Summer

When Sarah Draycott moves to a small town on the coast of Maine following her divorce, she is drawn into the lives, joys, and heartaches of her neighbors.

And she helps nine-year-old Oliver%E2%80%94who is taken into custody by an uncle he's never met%E2%80%94discover the truth about the deteriorating mansion where he now lives.
