Speak to the Dead
The Other Shore
By Hoa Pham
Hoa Pham’s 2014 The Other Shore is a stand-alone modern fantasy novel.
Sixteen-year-old Kim Nguyen is the other sister: not pretty, not engaged to be married, no known exceptional talents, in all ways the sibling her parents do not waste too much time thinking about.
A brush with death awakes an unusual gift, upending Kim’s life.
