Just finished this book. It's a slow starter, but once it gets going it's difficult to put down! The story focuses on "marsh girl", Kya, who is abandoned as a child and forced to look after herself in a swamp from a young age. Later, the book becomes a murder mystery. Its so beautifully written, and has an excellent twist... Unputdownable!
