On a January night, cabinetmaker Nico Salvetti opens his door and finds an infant wrapped in wet wool, with three words pinned to the blanket: Look after him. Nico does more than that. He gives the boy a name, a trade, and a home.
Fifteen years later, Marco still believes love must be earned. When a charming dockside swindler promises quick money and independence, Marco follows him into lies, debt, and a brutal warehouse yard where unwanted boys disappear.
As the worst storm in years closes over Slate Harbor, father and son are driven toward a wreck sailors call the Whale. There Marco must face the truth he has spent his life refusing: he was never a burden waiting to be cast away.
A grounded reimagining of Pinocchio, *The Boy the Tide Brought In* is a story of deception, mercy, and a love that does not have to be earned.
