Her husband, Hosea, and the life they built together, was once all she needed--but now Hosea is gone, lost at sea. Evangeline is only able to hold on to his inn, and her place on the island, by employing a curious gift to glimpse and re-form the recent memories of those who would cast her out. One night, an idealistic sailor appears on her doorstep asking her to call him Ishmael. He seeks only a warm bed and a bowl of chowder, and yet suddenly, unsettlingly, her careful illusion begins to fracture. He soon sails away with Ahab to hunt an infamous white whale, and Evangeline is left to forge a new life from the pieces that remain"--   Copy/Holding information Location Collection Call No. Status Due Date   Ewa Beach P/S Library Adult Fiction Roberts Checked In   Add Copy to MyList Kailua Public Library Adult New Books Roberts Checked In   Add Copy to MyList Kapolei Public Library Adult Fiction Roberts Checked In   Add Copy to MyList Mililani Public Library Adult Fiction Roberts Checked In   Add Copy to MyList Pahoa P/S Library Adult Fiction Roberts Checked out 06/05/2024 Add Copy to MyList Salt Lake-Moanalua Public Library Adult Fiction Roberts Checked In   Add Copy to MyList Wailuku Public Library Adult Fiction Roberts Checked out 06/12/2024 Add Copy to MyList Waipahu Public Library Adult Fiction Roberts Checked out 05/28/2024 Add Copy to MyList
