Notes: Fifteen-year-old Sam has just moved from the big city to the coast. Sam knows about physics and weather and how waves form - but none of that can prepare him for what lies in store over the coming months, or for falling in love with Jade, the mixed-up surfer girl next door, and with surfing itself. Yet Jade is driven by an obsession: finding and riding a legendary huge wave, pictured in a 1916 postcard, that no one has yet discovered. And as the autumn wears on, the story barrels forward with the force of a deep-water wave, towards a heartbreaking conclusion. 13+. Adolescent.
