Kassandra Montag - Tajtékzó világ

Barely a century after the present, the world is completely transformed. After the slow rise of the rising sea water, it will first flood the coastal cities of America and then the bulk of the interior of the mainland. Only the highlands remain dry, forming small islands. This is where the exchange stations and locations that make a living from maritime trade are located. The headstrong, independent Myra and her seven-year-old daughter, with their sailboat called Madár, give their heads to life on the water, and only end up exchanging the caught fish from time to time. Seven years ago, Myra's husband took their oldest daughter, Row, with him during a dam break in Nebraska. When a stranger is violent with the woman, he stabs her. However, from the man's description, Myra recognizes Row, whom her victim met around the Arctic Circle. He takes it into his head to get up to the hard-to-navigate area of ​​Greenland in order to save Row from a potential breeding ship in time. The ever-growing number of pirate companies collect young girls on these ships. Although Myra excludes everything new from her life, she takes a drowning navigator, Daniel, on her ship, and when the Bird runs aground, the three of them travel further with the larger Sedna. Myra uses all her cunning to lure the ship's crew north, whose main goal is to build a safe community on land. However, safety is a rare commodity in this world. Pirates chase the Sedna, and Myra begins to regret risking her younger daughter's life to save Row. The depiction of this sad world and the characters is so authentic that it easily captivates anyone who turns the pages. Even in the depths of the darkest despair, hope shines and gives strength - he teaches.
