Where the Crawdads Sing
by Delia Owens
Delia Owens's Where the Crawdads Sing braids a coming-of-age story, a courtroom mystery, and a naturalist's eye for the North Carolina marsh into one absorbing novel. It follows Kya Clark, abandoned to raise herself in the wetlands, and the town that would rather fear her than know her.
