Sixteen-year-old Pearl Poseidon ran away from the circus tired of her adoptive parents' abuse of her special skills.

Boardwalk employee and aspiring reporter, Chase Thomas, helps her with the rescue and witnesses her amazing dive. Now he has questions. And so do the police. Unbeknownst to Pearl, a battle rages under the Pacific between Loyal and Non-Loyal Atlantean forces and each side wants to use her powers for their cause. Will the commotion in the ocean expose her secrets to the world? Will Chase's reporter-determination ruin their chance for a real relationship? Will staying near the ocean she loves catapult into a battle royale? As each daughter of Atlantis discovers her talents, she must choose her destiny - whether to ignore the churning seas or swim into battle.

In both Mara Tussen and Lucy's world, there are three cities: Metal City, the Perimeter, and Paradise City. No matter what, Paradise is the place to be. It's colorful, warm, and...Paradise. But in Mara's world, all she knows is the cold and colorless city of Metal. She doesn't remember why or how she got to Metal, but she knew she had to seek Paradise, or be stuck in Metal forever. In Lucy's world, all she knows is the Perimeter's hospital. A dull, semi-colored place where she and other children go through "treatments", even though nobody gets sick in their world. Lucy could remember Paradise, and she knew she had to escape the awful hospital and get there, or else bad things would happen. All they know is that Paradise will save them. But what they don't know is the buried secrets of their pasts that lay not in Paradise, but in the surrounding areas of Metal and the Perimeter, and that perhaps knowing these secrets isn't the best thing.... Sometimes ignorance really is bliss. (Cover credit: @watermills)
