Description
Gavin Weald and his six-year-old daughter Océan live in a newly rebuilt pink house, a few months after a devastating flood swept through their home. The memories of that night still haunt him, and he struggles to find the strength to carry on. One day, he makes a decision that will change everything: he takes his daughter and their dog on a journey to the Caribbean archipelago, a place he had always longed to explore as a younger man. As they set sail on his old boat Romany, they are accompanied by an unexpected crew, who will discover the full power and majesty of the sea. The journey is a miraculous one, filled with new sights and wonders, but it will take more than an ocean to put the memory of the flood behind them. The sea has a way of healing, but it also holds secrets and surprises that will challenge Gavin and his daughter in ways they never expected. Their voyage is a test of courage, resilience, and the unbreakable bond between a father and daughter. As they navigate the open ocean, they will encounter wonders and dangers, and discover the true meaning of home and belonging.
