Fifteen-year-old Rowan, the daughter of foreign correspondents in Africa, finds herself beached for a summer with her cousins near Tofino, British Columbia. Desperate for a summer project, she camps on a neighbouring island to monitor the progress of an endangered group of sea otters, further threatened by the development plans of a real estate agent trying to sell the property for tourism.

Two pairs of legs were marching along the beach, topped by large pieces of cardboard saying: OTTERS OTTER BE LEFT ALONE

“Otters ought to be left alone, otters ought to be left alone,” chanted the twins in unison as they halted in front of the Zodiac.
