“But what the fables forget is that mermaids have teeth.”
This is a novella about stopping horrible saints.  It grapples with the horror of cult like behaviour.

But the book is actually a love story that develops between the main characters, a deep love that is felt on the page.

While not my usual book of choice, I think this book will live rent free for quite some time.
