"The people of this land know that mermaids are real," the professor said. "They're born with the knowledge--it's in their blood. If you ask them, of course they'll say 'No, you bellend. Are you on crack?' They lie. But they don't lie because you're an outsider, or because they don't trust you. It is simply impossible to say--

An unutterable truth."

When sixteen-year-old, recently orphaned Link Preston comes to live with his estranged best friend Echo in Cornwall, England, he finds himself in the middle of an ancient mystery that holds the small coastal village in fear. It has a lot to do with science, and also with the ocean, and with growing up, and possibly the mysterious, alluring Adeline who wanders the moors and sea cliffs. Possibly.

Those who were taken... They never came back, dragged beneath the waves never to return. Their haunting screams were a symbol of their horrific deaths. Like shadows they lay in wait, the deep blue waters hiding them from view. With sharp claws they attack, Pointed fangs tearing into skin, Eager mouths devouring human flesh. Cally was taken, dragged under the water by one of the vicious creatures. But she was not devoured nor torn apart by ruthless claws--no. She was a captive. ~•~ Water instantly invades her senses. Her eyes sting, her lungs and nose burning. She thrashes, kicks, claws--anything to get away. Her efforts go to waste as her body slowly starts to shut down, the air in her lungs quickly being replaced by sea water. Cally is vaguely aware of arms wrapping around her waist and behind her head before she loses consciousness, submerged in darkness. And so she is taken. Another victim of the mysterious sea. 《Completed》 Subscribe to TheAllieL Patreon for exclusive stories and content not featured on Wattpad and to support future works and book publishing! - Free Subscriber Tier - Allie's Library - Tier 1 - $2/month - Allie's Journal - Tier 2 - $5/month Subscribe here: Patreon.com/TheAllieL
