THE SECRET OF HAVEN POINT - LISETTE AUTON KARTO...

A charming tale of found families and mermaids  with my favourite kind of hero at its heart -
Elle McNicoll  award-winning author of A Kind of Spark 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.
