An earthquake of unrivalled force. A wall of water that’s devastated the coast. And with a toxic rain now beginning to fall, there’s never been a worse time for the dolphins of Fukushima... Adrift from their pods, Fusa and Mako are thrown together in the wake of an unparalleled sequence of disasters.

With Fusa desperate to return to her daughter, adolescent Mako admits a shameful secret: he has gravely insulted the trout-god, Moshiri. Afraid that the vengeful giant will thrash again to cause even more destruction, the pair brave orca clans, radioactive pollution and militarised dolphins to find Moshiri and offer an apology.

But a deadly encounter with humans on the way prompts a life-changing question: why should they fear a myth, when a real danger dwells right above the surface?

This highly original take on the 2011 Japanese Earthquake – the second title of the “Animal Eyes” series – blends history and adventure to tell a story of survival that is as tragic as it is compelling.
