Twelve-year-old Emily Windsnap has lived aboard a boat for as long as she remembers. Strangely enough, her mother has been anxious to keep her away from the water for the same amount of time. However, Emily discovers shocking information about her own identity, her father, who is enigmatic and she has never met, and the exciting opportunities and dangers that lie under the surface of the sea when Mom finally agrees to allow her take swimming lessons. First-time author Liz Kessler entices us into a magnificent underwater world where mermaids study shipwrecks at school and Neptune rules with an iron trident, all while building suspense and richly imaginative details. It's an enthralling fantasy about family secrets, devoted friendship, and the power of love that defies convention.
