just could not get into this book, tried really hard but I didn't care enough about the characters to keep going.

Another great story! I seriously love the mythology that the author sets up in her books, and adding elementals really adds a unique facet to the storytelling. I can't wait to see where this is going!

Picture yourself as a girl who's mother is a mermaid who hates living on land but survives by having the career as a world renowned salvage diver. Sadly you aren't a mermaid like your mother which puts somewhat of a rift between you two. A wealthy owner of a shipping company invites your mother and you to Poland to salvage and explore a ship from what may be tied to both your histories. Once you take swim in the brackish water....you change....and suddenly you and your mother are even more alike. What adventures await you next?

I adored this story of mermaids and magic. The history involved intrigued and excited me greatly. I look forward to reading the rest of this series.

Awesome read!

One of the best representations of the mermaids mythological journey I've ever read. Truly an awesome retelling of their mythos and who the far are.
