What's the name if this book?
This is also another book I read in 5th grade. It's about this girl moving to Maine, I think and she becomes friends with this girl and she calls herself Scarlett and she's staying with her grandma in [possibly] a lighthouse and its during WWII. There's a cave nearby and there's the little pigeons that carry messages and a German submarine. Then she goes on a date to like a clam bonfire with the guy her friend likes and her friend is all mad at her and apparently, her friend is the niece of the person whose working for the Germans. Something like that. Can you please tell me the name and/or the author?
Oh, and her mother went to this place in Canada because her uncle is sick and people are wearing a lot of slacks or something.
Shadows on the Sea by Joan Hiatt Harlow
Kirkus Reviews
A clunky thriller based on a landing of Nazi spies in Maine during WWII seems bent more on instruction than on thrills. Fourteen-year-old Jill's father is an entertainer, always on the road, so when her mother's brother falls ill in Newfoundland, Jill must reluctantly spend the summer of 1942 with her grandmother on the coast of Maine. Her worries about her parents' safety and her anxiety about making friends become tied together when she and the lighthouse-keeper's son come to believe they have found a Nazi cell operating out of a neighbor's house. The suspense deepens when Jill begins to wonder if her new girlfriend's aunt is a member of the cell. Harlow peppers her text with details obviously meant to invoke a sense of period and place, but that end up burdening the rather predictable plot. Physical descriptions replete with references to "honey-colored hair" and "amber eyes" and a thoroughly tin ear for regional dialect complete the package, which ends up being a sort of mix between Nancy Drew and Murder, She Wrote. (Historical fiction. 9-13) (Kirkus Reviews, August 15, 2003)
