Twins Bailey and Riley live alone in their home at 15, due to their parents mysteriously going missing 2 years ago. They face hardships together, trying to balance their own lives with their survival. Riley is a very free-spirited person, as opposed to her shy, older-by-2-minutes sister. One day, Riley finally has enough of her conserved life, and goes out to try and find some adventure. This adventure results in something completely life-changing, unexpected, and perhaps dangerous to all involved...
Eileen is an upcoming senior in high school. She's smart, hard-working, and has the best friends anyone could ask for. However, what was supposed to be a fun afternoon for Eileen and her friends turns into something very... odd, and life-changing for all involved...
A story of survival, friendships, self-discovery, and thriving in a cruel world that is as difficult as it is beautiful.
Oh, and did I mention there were mermaids involved?
