I gasped, stumbling back. Its face was shadowed, but I could still see the outline of its features. Illuminated by the reflection of the stars, I could see the sharp jawline and steely eyes that regarded me. A face that, even in the dark of night, was distinctly masculine. "Why are you here." A chilling voice seethed from the shadows. It was as cold as the night around us, with a slight hiss that was threatening enough to send my heart racing even faster. ~*~ #1 in EXPERIMENT #1 in MERPEOPLE #1 in BEAUTY AND THE BEAST #1 in OCEAN The second book in the Species Unknown series.

Tides of the Unknown
The sea keeps many secrets, but some are too dark to stay hidden. In the quiet coastal town of Ravenshollow, marine biologist Dr. Anaya Roy arrives to investigate a series of strange phenomena: mysterious sinkholes, dying marine life, and whispers of a centuries-old legend about *The Tidekeepers*, an ancient cult said to worship the sea's wrath. When a local fisherman vanishes under suspicious circumstances, Anaya's scientific curiosity turns into a desperate quest for answers. Teaming up with a skeptical detective and a reclusive historian, she uncovers a chilling connection between the disappearances, her father's unsolved vanishing fifteen years ago, and an ancient artifact buried beneath the waves. As the tides pull back farther than ever before, exposing a hidden network of underwater caves, Anaya races against time to unravel the town's darkest secrets. But the deeper she delves, the clearer it becomes-some forces are better left undisturbed. Will Anaya confront the horrors beneath the surface, or will she and Ravenshollow become the next victims of the unknown?
