Lines in the Tide

In Karachi Fish Harbour, Ayaan’s habit of drawing everything he sees—dead fish, oily sheens, glowing waves—turns into evidence when a science fair offers a prize that could save his father’s stall. With his friend Zara, a rooftop stakeout, and help from a university mentor, his “lines in the tide” expose a factory’s illegal waste and bring a new cold storage unit—and a cleaner harbour—to Stall 27.
