To see the finished artical of Dans vision come to life and is amazing. Mermaid is an epic story of heartache, pain and greif.
Upon their move. To a life beside the sea it all changes when Meagan sews something in the water.
This is the start of a huge life shift for Meagen David as they begin chasing around for more answers.
Without giving it away- there is a misterious book, cults and more
There is the good, the bad and the spectacualr in this novel and it does not dissappoint.

This story drew me in immediately and I was desperate to find time to read it all the way through. While I've read many stories about both Mermaids and Kelpies this book is completely unique and unlike any dark fantasy story I have read before. It's a departure from the other novels I've read by Danny White but in no surprise to me his writing is as brilliant here as it is in both his other novels and his poetry books.

Exciting and adventurous
I love stories about mermaids, and this one hit the spot. A little different but still very enjoyable. And I'm not talking about the little mermaid either. Like my mermaids scary and mean.
