The gift child / Elaine McCluskey.

Summary:

"Graham Swim is good at playing the harmonica and making friends, but one day he disappears in Pollock Passage, Nova Scotia. The last sighting of Graham is him riding away from a government wharf with a giant tuna head in the basket of his Schwinn delivery bicycle. When Graham's cousin Harriett decides to investigate his disappearance, she comes up against her own family history. A news photographer now jobless and adrift, Harriett has lived most of her life in the shadow of her larger-than-life father--a once-beloved TV news anchor and borderline narcissist. Arriving in Pollock Passage, Harriet meets a stranger who tells her he is researching the Shag Harbour UFO mystery. While this stranger helps Harriett reconnect with pieces of herself she thought long-dead, she also learns that what she knows about her father may not be true."-- Provided by publisher.
