Oak Grove is a dry, dusty town haunted by memories of a past flood. Everyone dreads the water-except two brothers, Trevor and Eli McGill. Nicknamed Trout and Eel for their darting and quickness and the thin webbing between their fingers and toes, the boy's dream of the farthest seas of a mysterious past they barely remember.
Martha Glimmer, the boys' fierce and loyal freind, has her own reasons to help them reach their hearts' desire. She is running away from her own memories-of her mother's death, of her father's grief, of the time before her heart was borken.
Little do Martha, Trout, and Eel know that running away will lead them on a journey back to their own, true natures...
