A pulse-pounding thriller and an investigation into the scandals of nuclear energy.

Strange things are afoot in Viskow, what with its abandoned seafront, the arrival of an inquisitive reporter, and doctors overbooked with endless appointments. Twelve-year-old Mairead is buzzing with questions. Through the window, she watches the big factory at the far endof the dike, and the gulls on the boat masts. The summer's off to a good start ‒ that is, until a stranger starts asking questions about her family, and a mysterious man in a hat starts tailing her for no good reason. When she ventures into a condemned industrial complex, Mairead finds herself neck-deep in the nuclear energy industry's dirty secrets.
