This is the second book in my Sea Monster Saga. I highly recommend you read Stolen Scales before you start this one.

But as she grows closer to him, she realizes he knows more about the murder than he’s telling. When another girl is attacked, and Jamie refuses to answer her questions, Aileen searches for answers on her own.
