Description
The Fifth Pearl by India Marks
Fourteen-year-old Skylark Smith feels an inexplicable connection to the water. But the more she is drawn to it, the more fiercely her Japanese mother, Yumiko, tries to keep her away. As their once-close relationship begins to unravel, Skylark becomes determined to discover what her mother is so afraid of.
When a hidden message reveals a grandmother Skylark never knew existed, it sets in motion a journey that will carry mother and daughter from Georgia to a seaside village in Japan that Yumiko fled nearly twenty years ago.
Why Did She Leave?
In Japan Skylark discovers a world of extraordinary women who have spent generations diving into the depths of the sea. She begins to piece together the meaning of the four pearls her mother guards so closely and the secret that has kept three generations of women apart.
What Happened to Yumiko?
As Skylark is drawn deeper into her family’s past, Yumiko must confront the very thing she has spent a lifetime trying to escape. And both must discover whether the truth that threatens to tear them apart might also be the only thing that can bring them together.
What is the Fifth Pearl?
The Fifth Pearl is a captivating story of family secrets, courage, and the invisible threads connecting mothers and daughters across oceans and generations..
