Synopsis

The Turbulent Tide centers around the story of Katrina, who is orphaned at eight years old, and is taken to live with an aunt and uncle that she has never met. She finds that her aunt and cousins do not want her, and she flees into the surrounding woods where she meets a young peasant boy who befriends her. He explains though that they can never be friends. However, a bond is formed that lasts through the years. The novel shows the contrast of the luxurious life style of the aristocracy and the hard laboring existence of the peasants.
