Whale Song

A shocking tragedy leaves Sarah Richardson with partial amnesia. Captivated by Native Indian legends told by a wise Nootka grandmother, Sarah begins her journey for the truth hidden amongst her lost memories. Torn by nightmares and visions of a yellow-eyed wolf, Sarah must come face to face with her fears and her memories. Aided by the creatures of the Earth and by the killer whales that call to her in the night, Sarah discovers that 'forgiveness sets you free'. Whale Song is a sensationally emotional coming-of-age story, set in the late 1970's and beyond, about a young American girl growing up on Vancouver Island. A heartbreaking story of a tragedy that nearly destroys a young girl's future, Whale Song is a revelation of truth, love and forgiveness. If you listen closely, you can almost hear the Whale Song...
