"Since its publication in 2018, Delia Owens' coming-of-age murder mystery novel Where the Crawdads Sing has caught the attention of book worms far and wide and in 2021, won the British Book Award for Page-Turner of the year."
"Set in the marshlands of North Carolina, the novel follows six-year-old Kya's adolescence as she navigates life after being stranded by her siblings and mother who leave to escape the abuse of her dipsomaniacal father."
"Owens cleverly uses a dual narrative to contrast this period of Kya's life to a much more trying, frustrating era in her adulthood when she becomes the prime suspect in the murder case of Chase Andrews."
