Orcas, friendship, and a far-reaching connection

The story brings together three teenagers from contrasting circumstances: Terra and Tiluk, who live alongside wild orcas in Washington State, and Miles, coping with anger after his parents’ divorce. After Miles witnesses a captive orca kill its trainer, he reaches out to Terra’s family of whale biologists. Their shared effort to understand the whale expands into a challenge to commercial interests and an exploration of human connections with orcas, including a mystical bond tied to lost traditions. Marine life, family upheaval, and the relationship between people and animals converge in a plot that links the teens’ lives with a larger revelation about Terra.

Good fit for readers who enjoy

  • Teens and young adults interested in stories centered on orcas and marine life.

Book overview

Best friends Terra and Tiluk live alongside the wild orcas of Washington State. On the other side of the continent, Miles wallows in anger and self-pity fueled by his parents' divorce. In a moment of harrowing fate, their lives converge when Miles witnesses a captive orca brutally kill his trainer at a marine amusement park.

When Miles contacts Terra and her family of whale biologists to better understand the "killer" whale, the three teens soon realize they are more linked to each other - and the whales - than they ever imagined. Driven by a primal urge to connect with the highly-evolved consciousness of the orca, the teens take extraordinary risks to challenge big business and renew lost traditions.

 

Their journey is set to restore an ancient mystical bond between humans and whales that ultimately reveals The Blackfish Prophecy...a revelation about Terra - and those like her - that's about to change everything.
