About Remarkably Bright Creatures by Shelby Van Pelt:

Working the night shift at the Sowell Bay Aquarium has helped Tova Sullivan cope since her son mysteriously vanished over thirty years ago. Marcellus, a giant Pacific octopus living at the aquarium, knows more than anyone can imagine but wouldn't dream of lifting one of his eight arms for his human captors - until he forms a remarkable friendship with Tova. Ever the detective, Marcellus deduces what happened the night Tova's son disappeared. And now Marcellus must use every trick his old invertebrate body can muster to unearth the truth for her before it's too late.
