It’s summer and 13-year-old, four-foot eight-inch, stature-challenged Miles O’Malley is doing what he loves best…combing the tidal beaches of the Puget Sound in the middle of the night. The Nisqually Earthquake is about to shake up his home town of Olympia, Washington, and his obsession with all things aquatic and his infatuation with the girl next door is about to turn this young man’s life upside down. Poetic, yet lean and lucid, and disarmingly funny, The Highest Tide is a frank and funny look into the sea change of adolescence, and an intelligent, fascinating peek under the coastal waters of the Puget Sound—a sure highlight for all Northwesterners.

I learned early on that if you tell people what you see at low tide they’ll think you’re exaggerating or lying when you’re actually just explaining strange and wonderful things as clearly as you can.
