"If I'd blinked, I'd have overlooked it. But I didn't, and I saw something land from the rear deck of the opposite ferry: a little, wide-eyed individual face, in a single tiny frozen moment in time, as it plummeted toward this." When she witnesses a little child tumbling from a ferry into Lake Champlain, Troy Chance dives in without thinking. Harrowing occasions later, she bobs to the surface, tugging a terrified little son with her. As the ferry disappears into the distance, she commences a bone-chilling swim practically a mile to shore towing a tiny passenger. Incredibly, he speaks only French. He'll acknowledge that his name is Paul; often, he's resolutely mute. Troy assumes that Paul's frantic parents will maintain touch with the authorities or the press. But what follows is a shocking and deafening silence. And Troy, a freelance copy writer, finds herself as fiercely driven to protect Paul as she is to find out what took place to him. She'll need skill and courage to make it through and protect her fee and herself. Sara J. Henry's powerful and engaging Learning to Swim will move and disturb listeners right up to its shattering realization.
