Эта история о девочке по имени Альфа Лакс. Ее бросили в младенчестве на Хейвен Пойнт, маяке, который с тех пор стал безопасным местом для всех людей с ограниченными возможностями или различными особенностями. Вместе с русалками, живущими неподалеку, обитатели маяка, называющие себя «Обломками», совершают набеги на корабли. Альфа проводит дни со своим лучшим другом Барсуком и старается не попадать в неприятности. Но однажды она замечает таинственный свет на холме и сразу же понимает, что ее любимая новая семья находится под угрозой столкновения с чужаками...
«Тайна Хейвен Пойнт» – потрясающее литературное приключение от невероятного дебютанта Лизетт Аутон.
Книга точно заинтересует детей среднего школьного возраста.
Книга на английском языке.
A stunning literary adventure from an incredible debut talent, perfect for fans of Kiran Millwood Hargrave, Cerrie Burnell and Katherine Rundell.
I was Haven Point's first Wreckling, but I certainly wasn't the last. There are forty-two of us now, not including the mermaids. When you're a Wreckling, you mainly spend your days squabbling, eating and planning adventures. Oh, and Wrecklings also carry out wreckings, which is how we got our name . . .
Washed up as a baby beside a remote lighthouse and raised by a mermaid, Alpha Lux was the first foundling at Haven Point. Now the lighthouse is a ramshackle home for any disabled person who needs somewhere to belong. Looting from passing ships to make a living, they call themselves the Wrecklings, and for the children of Haven Point life is spent adventuring on the wild shore (and getting into trouble with the grown-ups).
But when Alpha spots a strange light up on the headland, she realizes that her beloved family are in danger of being discovered by Outsiders.
With their home under threat, the Wrecklings must decide what kind of future they want . . . and what they're willing to do to get it.
