Owen Jester finds the best salvage ever: a submarine built for two, perfect for launching in Graham Pond. To figure out how to retrieve and navigate the sub, Owen needs help from his neighbor, the irritating, nosy, but whip-smart Viola. O'Connor downplays the drama in this quiet story, allowing Owen the time and space necessary to make his own decisions.
