August 16, 2137: The Maiden of the Waves ferry boat makes its third ever voyage, heading from Florida Harbor and to Fowey Port, in Cornwall. The Arscythe family - Roma, Andrea, Reuben, and Madeleine - enjoy luxury on the ferry as they travel back home from their vacation spot in Florida Territory.
August 18, 2137: The Maiden of the Waves is the first ferry boat to be set on fire from the inside and burn above the waves. The fire is ruled to be an accident. There are forty-six survivors out of nine hundred on board, and as far as anyone is concerned, Madeleine Arscythe is not one of them.
Hidden deep beneath the waves about thirty miles north of Cuba lies a secret- one that has been kept safe from humans for as long as it has existed, with the odd exception.
When the Maiden of the Waves sinks, Madeleine Arscythe becomes one such exception.

The dark waters| ✓
I won't survive. I'm sure of it. Strong wind ruffles through my clothes and hardly allows my eyes to remain open. I'm surprised that I'm still standing on the rock and haven't been tossed into the whirlwind. Huge waves crash down upon the rocks making deafening sounds. I open my eyes wide enough to see the next wave coming. As it comes towards the rock, it reaches the height of a three-storey building and seems to loom over me for some time, like a monster looking at its prey with hungry eyes, before finally crashing down towards me like a waterfall. While it comes down one single thought comes in my mind. This is how I die. Then the waters devour me. ___________________________________________ What's the worst crime you could ever commit?

Ocean's Justice
A mysterious castaway. A Scottish hero determined to protect her. Can they survive the storm? Cast adrift on the Indian Ocean, Maria carries a terrible secret. Wherever she goes, death soon follows, and she's powerless to prevent it. William McGregor boarded the SS Trevessa in search of adventure, but he gets more than he bargained for when he saves the mysterious Maria from the sea. She can't tell them her tragic tale, so the superstitious sailors make up their own stories - and some would sacrifice her to the waves to save themselves from the coming storm. When the sharks start circling and the storm closes in, are sirens more than just a myth? A tiny taste of what's in store: My defiance was futile. What did it get me? A small raft drifting across the Indian Ocean, with nothing but the sound of waves and the smell of salt and coal-smoke. Smoke meant a ship. I was saved. I squinted into the sunlight, but the waves hid the vessel from me. Maybe I was looking the wrong way. I didn't have the strength to sit up and see. Rough hands seized me. I struggled, but my weakness won. Blue eyes drifted above, the same colour as the ocean below. A tangle of wiry seaweed obscured the rest of the man's face. "It's all right, lass. I'll take care of you." Darkness took me first. This book has been published and is available wherever you buy good ebooks.
