For many years, rumors about the swamp girl have been harassed by Barkley-Kovu, a quiet town on the coast of North Carolina. And when at the end of 1969 they found the body of Czez, the local playboy, the inhabitants of the town immediately suspected Kia Clark, a girl, who lived a hermit in the swamps from early childhood. Sensitive and smart, Kia actually calls his house a swamp, and friends - swamp birds, fish, animals. But when the time for growing up comes, Kia discovers for itself a completely different side of life, it wakes up a desire to love and be loved. And Kia happily plunges into this unknown new world - until the unthinkable occurs. The novel of the famous biologist Delia Owens is a real ode to nature, a gentle story about growing up, a novel about loneliness, about the connection of people, about whether people are needed at all, and at the same time it is a dark, mysterious story with a murder, which was either it or no
