In 1940, 15 year old Margot Fiske arrives on the shores of Monterey Bay with her eccentric entrepreneur father. Margot has been her father's apprentice all over the world, until an accident in Monterey's tide pools drives them apart and plunges her head-first into the mayhem of John Steinbeck's Cannery Row. Exploring histories both imagined and real, Monterey is a riveting coming of age story, based on the hit book by Lindsay Hatton (Penguin).
