An encounter across species off Namibia’s coast

Set around an offshore rig in the South Atlantic, the novel links diver Jonas’s work with his growing connection to Peek, a dolphin curious about the human in the water. Their interactions open onto the lives of other sea creatures, including whales and sharks, while storms and human activity bring the ocean’s risks into view. The central question—what people and another species might learn by communicating—gives the adventure its shape. The book frames that meeting as a way to consider human relationships with marine life and the importance of respecting and protecting nature.

Good fit for readers who enjoy

  • Teens and young adults interested in marine-life fiction.
  • Readers who enjoy adventures involving human-animal communication and ocean settings.
  • Readers interested in stories about nature and human responsibility toward the sea.

Book overview

What would be your experience if you could communicate with another species? What would be learned, and what would you tell them? Jonas works a high-risk job as a diver aboard an off-shore rig. He never thought he would be confronted with such questions.

Peek, a dolphin, inhabits the waters around the rig, and is curious of this human who spends so much time in the ocean. He never realized how enriching such an encounter could be.

In the novel Dolphin Mimicry, the forces of mankind and nature intersect through the intertwined journeys of self-realization and enlightenment between Jonas and Peek. This story is for all ages, and follows the adventures of Jonas, as he works off the coast of Namibia in the south Atlantic. He befriends Peek, and their adventure deepens through the discovery of each other's worlds as they interact with whales, sharks, intense storms, and humans.

Dolphin Mimicry is an exciting and sobering journey into the mysterious oceanic world; one that gives us an understanding of what those who inhabit the seas experience as they interact with humans. The story embraces the importance of respecting and protecting nature and leads to a conclusion that will warm your heart.
