An adventurous runaway. A cursed half-blood pirate. A spiteful merman. And a bloodthirsty madman. Marina Storm is a troubled young women who's always dreamed of adventures on the great blue sea. As she imagines what it might be to simply run away from her problems and responsibilities, her home is raided and she finds herself face to face with an old friend she thought she'd long gotten rid of. Except much like herself, he had both changed too much and yet not at all. Eret Soren is still a man with more secrets than she likes without hardly a sense of self-preservation, fearing none of the dangers on sea besides that of his captain. It's this that leads Marina to question his very existence, along with what broke apart their friendship all those years ago, but first she must worry about her own fate. What has a man with a history of never leaving survivors have use of her for? Suddenly these two find themselves surrounded by dangerous and otherworldly creatures, and Marina finds herself offering her help in Eret's mission in exchange for his help to escape. Now the two of them must team up with a wary, reluctant merman and an overeager young lass to retrieve something lost. Secrets, myths, and an ancient prophecy make themselves known to Marina as she learns how little she truly knows about the world around her. Too bad the truth can kill. Cover by Angelblooded03
