Capsized

“A thoughtful love letter to the intricacies, rivalries, and familial intimacy in the sport of rowing. Balogh masterfully weaves a coming-of-age sports tale with a thrilling teen mystery, all set in a version of Boston that has never felt so authentic or fun. Capsized is the kind of story you want to climb right into and squeeze between the characters … at least while the boat is still upright!” —Kit Rosewater, author of All’s Fair in Love and Field Hockey“Charlotte Lillie Balogh has written a rollicking, fast-paced novel about a group of young women who ultimately (and not without some pain) find a sense of belonging when they join a high school rowing team. They discover that they are only as strong as their weakest link, and more importantly, that when they are united, they can navigate the ugly and beautiful transition into adulthood together.” —Mary Mazzio, award-winning documentary filmmaker and U.S. Olympic rower
