Mary Murphy feels like sheβs drowning. Her violent father is home from prison, and the social worker is suspicious of her new bruises. An aunt sheβs never met keeps calling. And if she canβt get a good grade on her science project, sheβll fail her favorite class.
But Mary doesnβt want to be a victim anymore. She has a plan: build a real submarine, like the model sheβs been making with Kip Dwyer, the secretly sweet class clown.
Gaining courage from her heroine, Joan of Arc, Mary vows to pilot a sub across the Chesapeake Bay, risking her life in a modern crusade to save herself.
Mary Underwater is an empowering tale of persistence, heroism, and hope from a luminous new voice in middle-grade fiction.
