Anaisha - sharp, sweet and caring, Andries - sarcastic, sometimes laconic and loving and Mykal - loyal and with an infectious zeal for life, have been inseparable since childhood, their lives wound together wonderfully as they grow up by the beach in the beautiful, privileged community of Whispering Waves.
