K’s first real try at breaking the rules proves to be a bit of disaster. The constant wondering what might have happened if only she had chosen differently. But then that disaster meant she met a boy, she learnt the truth, and she just might get to save a life – the life of a whale. Family secrets once again come to the fore in this novel, launched in support of Project Jonah. Themes of first love, pushing the boundaries of parental control, the consequences of small lies, and mate-ships formed through Project Jonah.
