so-so
Jess Butterworth‘s contemporary ecological thriller for children aged 9+ does a great job of evoking the strange beauty of the Louisiana bayou and how it‘s at risk from climate change while Eliza and Avery‘s relationship captures the frustrations and rivalry of having a sibling. However the plot relies on a series of foolish decisions that I didn‘t believe of two swamp kids while I thought the corporate skulduggery plot was resolved too neatly.
