| Have
you ever heard the term "tender" in deep sea diving? Do you have
any idea what a tender might have to do with diving? Well, Liv certainly
doesn't know. As a matter of fact, she has no idea what diving is
all about. She is happy living with her grandmother in New York City.
When her grandmother dies unexpectedly, Liv is sent to California to live
with the father she has never met. He left when she was born and
only occasionally remembers to send any money for Liv's care. Now
Liv is dealing with her grief over the loss of her grandmother, adjusting
to life in a new state, getting to know a father she never knew and now
she is told that she will have to be the tender on her father's boat.
How will she possibly cope with all the changes in her life? What
will she learn about herself and her abilities? |
