With her confidence shattered and her future uncertain, on impulse she rents a cabin for a year on Australia's Great Barrier Reef. However Turtle Island, alive with sea birds and nesting Green turtles, is not the retreat she expected. Here she finds love―for the eccentric islanders who become her family; for Tom, the laid-back turtle whisperer; and for the turtles whose ancient mothering instincts move her to tears. But Anna finds that even on her idyllic drop in the ocean there is pain, and as the months fly past her dream for a new life is threatened by a darkness that challenges everything she has come to believe about the power of love.  Evocative and thought-provoking, A Drop in the Ocean is a story about second chances and hard lessons learned in the gentlest of ways.Editorial Reviews "In A Drop In The Ocean, protagonist Anna Fergusson learns that love is about letting go. Jenni Ogden takes us on a sweeping journey, rich with unique characters and places, moving backward and forward in time, to reach this poignant and heartfelt lesson."―Ann Hood, New York Times best-selling author of The Knitting Circle, The Red Thread, and The Obituary Writer  "Reading A Drop in the Ocean was everything a reading experience should be, endearing and enduring, time spent with characters who seem to be people I already knew."―Jacquelyn Mitchard, New York Times #1 best-selling author of The Deep End Of The Ocean, Oprah's first bookclub choice   "Readers will enjoy this novel of second chances, not only at love but at life, reminiscent of Terry McMillan's How Stella Got Her Groove Back."―Booklist "A novel about turtles, the fragility of life, and the complexity of love, A Drop in the Ocean will transport you to remote islands with its lyrical natural imagery. This is a story to savor, discuss, and share." ―Barbara Claypole White, best-selling author of The Perfect Son  "Evocative and thought-provoking, A Drop In The Ocean is a story about belonging―and the ripples that can flow from the family we choose to the family that chooses us." ―Anita Heiss, finalist in the 2013 Australian of the Year Awards and best-selling author of Tiddas  "Jenni Ogden is a natural storyteller who writes characters to care about."―Nicky Pellegrino, author of One Summer in Venice "A Drop in the Ocean is a brilliantly written novel that readers won't easily forget. Life, love, and loss are strong themes that will lure readers back to this beautifully woven journey of second chances. Readers will laugh and cry and want to hug Anna Fergusson as the scenes unfold. But that's not all. Readers will be taken into the vivid imagery of the island and the turtles. A powerful read that I highly recommend."―Danielle Urban, 5 Star Readers' Favorite review
