What if the mermaids who lure sailors to their doom are the women they cast into the sea? This is the story of one such woman. Aliénor never imagined the ocean would become her grave. After a superstitious sea captain sends her to the bottom of the sea, she awakens to discover that she has survived—but she is no longer human. With a haunting voice, a deadly tail, and a hunger she cannot explain, Aliénor must learn to survive beneath the waves. There, she meets Mairi, a young Scottish woman who knows all too well what it means to be cast aside by the world above. Together, they discover that the men who destroyed their lives still sail the seas. And the sea has given them a way to make them pay. As Aliénor searches for the husband she lost and Mairi seeks vengeance for the mother she could not save, the two women form an unlikely bond beneath the waves. But the deeper they descend into their thirst for revenge, the more they must ask themselves: How much of themselves are they willing to lose to make the men who hurt them suffer? The sailors call them monsters. They may have forgotten who created them.
