Van Pelt, Shelby

After Tova Sullivanā€™s husband died, she began working the night shift at the Sowell Bay Aquarium, mopping floors and tidying up. Keeping busy has always helped her cope, which sheā€™s been doing since her eighteen-year-old son, Erik, mysteriously vanished on a boat in Puget Sound over thirty years ago.

Tova becomes acquainted with curmudgeonly Marcellus, a giant Pacific octopus living at the aquarium. Marcellus knows more than anyone can imagine but wouldnā€™t dream of lifting one of his eight arms for his human captorsā€”until he forms a remarkable friendship with Tova.

Ever the detective, Marcellus deduces what happened the night Tovaā€™s son disappeared. And now Marcellus must use every trick his old invertebrate body can muster to unearth the truth for her before itā€™s too late.

Shelby Van Peltā€™s debut novel is a gentle reminder that sometimes taking a hard look at the past can help uncover a future that once felt impossible.
