Lorna O'Shene is a young modern woman who, in addition to having the normal concerns of relationships, friends, family and work, is also dealing with her gradual transformation into a mermaid. Lorna seeks out the help of marine biologist Dr. Kitt Dawson -- and soon finds herself falling head over fins. Dr. Dawson is torn between logic and love when he encounters in Lorna something that he can't explain -- Is Lorna a mermaid or something different, someone new; a mermaid of mythology or of biology, the latter as much a process of transformation as falling in love? Find out if Lorna will rebel against or embrace the changes her body undergoes, in a narrative that incorporates elements of mythology, biology, mystery and romantic comedy. An original fiction by Christopher Daniels (writtenbychristopher).
