a desperate swim

When she witnesses a child falling into Lake Champlain,Troy Chance doesn't even think as she dives into the icy waters off a ferry. As the ferry disappears she retrieves the little boy and faces a cold mile-long swim to shore. So starts the novel Learning to Swim by Sara J. Henry. Who is this child who only speaks French? Why is there no press about a missing boy? Her discovery of the child's identity and why he was almost killed is the chilling mystery explored in this novel. Interesting characters and a fast-moving plot make this an exciting read. M.L.
