Time is running out for the iconic killer whales of the Pacific coast. Persecuted as pests then captured for display in marine parks, orca families have been decimated by humanity's greed and folly, their food supply wiped out, their infants dying from starvation and tainted mother's milk.
Captive male orca Makai is saved from euthanasia and destined for freedom. But a human-caused tragedy upends Makai's world. Plotting revenge, acceptance into orca society, and a reversal of his adopted family's decline, his success hinges on the help of fellow orcas, whale researchers, and a runaway Native teenager with Orca Clan roots. But Makai's radical plan must first overcome millennia of orca cultural tradition.
Profits from the sale of Beyond the Human Realm will be donated to orca conservation efforts.
