The Girl Who Talked to Whales describes the love story of Marietta L v que, a high spirited girl fond of the sea and the whales, and Malcolm Frazer, the richest and most sought-after bachelor of the Colony of Baja Centro, a colony founded in the 40 s by a group of American farmers in the center of the Mexican Peninsula of Baja California. They obtained permission from the Mexican Government to improve the land by irrigation and planting winter vegetables to export to the United States. The farmers were joined by a group of wealthy families from Boston who spent the winter months in Baja Centro to escape the rigor of the ice and the snow. From Baja Centro the story moves to San Diego, California, where Marietta, after being separated from Malcolm by her father, begins to work for a scientist trying to teach two Killer Whales, or Orcas, to communicate with humans by using their echolocation system of communication of emitting whistles and clicks. The outcome of the experiment and the struggle of Malcolm and Marietta to be happy constitute the heart of this science fiction, romantic novel.
