It only takes seconds for the course of your life to change and Frederik knows exactly how it feels. Five years ago he made a devastating mistake, which still haunts him. When his mother sends him to spend his summer holidays with his cousins by the sea, his life changes again when he meets Noah, a shy, but witty boy with a broken leg, in desperate need of a friend and an adventure. Noah is not like anyone else Frederik has met before and the two of them form a special bond. Noah simply understands him without words and he might be the only one capable of uncovering and easing Frederiks deeply buried grief, a wave that might otherwise bury him underneath one day. But at the end of the summer, tragedy strikes and the life of Frederik threatens to change for the third time. His past seems to repeat itself when a storm hits the island and emotions are getting out of control. Frederik is willing to fight until his last breath but will he be able to save everyone he cares about?
