Sharkbait

A Mermaid Tale

There are few reasons for a mermaid to leave the sea. The murder of my sister tops my list. Shifting from mermaid to human is easy for some, but not for me. Legs are clumsy things, lacking the grace of my fishtail. The gift of the merfolk, our songs, has been taken from me. And the human world? I’m looking for a killer in a strange city of plastic and metal, composed of nearly 900,000 individuals - a city where I don’t belong - a city with inhabitants that have other uses for my kind… some worse than death. Sharkbait is a mermaid tale that will take you both over the land and under the sea, a captivating and colorful thriller where both allies and enemies may not be what they seem.
