In her grandmother&’s seaside world, Sabina reconnects with several old passions: ocean swimming, process painting, and a long-lost summer love named Graham—all of which force her to confront the artistic dream she abandoned to support her husband. Meanwhile, a mysterious voice calls to her. Sabina wonders if it&’s a Selkie, one of the mythical shape-shifting seal folk from her grandmother&’s stories. As both her marriage and her grandmother&’s health deteriorate, Sabina wrestles with the choices she&’s made. Is it too late to reclaim her dream? Must she choose between art and love? And is the voice she&’s hearing a sign she&’s lost it—or a key to unlocking her true self?
