Delia Owens Where the Crawdads Sing follows Kya Clark, a girl abandoned by her family and left to grow up alone in the marshes of North Carolina. Ostracized by the nearby town and nicknamed Marsh Girl, Kya survives by learning from nature and selling mussels. As she matures, she forms fragile connections with two young menTate, who teaches her to read, and Chase, whose charm hides darker motives. When Chase is found dead in 1969, suspicion falls on Kya, and the novel unfolds as both a murder mystery and a lyrical coming-of-age story. It explores themes of isolation, resilience, prejudice, and the deep bond between humans and the natural world.
