The Mysterious Disappearance of Leon
Synopsis
When her husband Leon disappears at sea after a brief reunion years later, Mrs. Caroline Fish Carillon is left with nothing but a garbled underwater transmission: "Noel (glub) see (blub) all... I (glub) new." What begins as an obsessive personal quest to decode the message becomes a decades-long mystery involving her adopted children and their friend Augie, each piece of the puzzle slowly revealing a truth Caroline never expected.
