A mermaid banished from their kingdom by her brother as he tries to keep his throne. A curse that turns her human and strips her of her magic. A warning that if she ever returns, she will become a monster.

After washing up on the shores of Atlantis, a kind merchant helps her to build a life on land. Finding a place in the Atlantean army, she is finally given the chance to become the warrior she believes she can be, and when she discovers a powerful trident that could restore her path home is within her grasp, she must make the hardest choice of all. But legends are powerful forces and her true identity must stay a secret, for fear of the humans who would burn her if they discovered what she truly was.

A stunning and original tale of a villain we all know and loathe, this a perfect beach read for those eager to be part of that world.
