Tova becomes acquainted with curmudgeonly Marcellus, a giant Pacific octopus living at the aquarium. Marcellus knows more than anyone can imagine but wouldn t dream of lifting one of his eight arms for his human captors until he forms a remarkable friendship with Tova. Ever the detective, Marcellus deduces what happened the night Tova s son disappeared. And now Marcellus must use every trick his old invertebrate body can muster to unearth the truth for her before it s too late. Shelby Van Pelt s debut novel is a gentle reminder that sometimes taking a hard look at the past can help uncover a future that once felt impossible.
