For all those who enjoyed Helen Dunmore’s absolutely brilliant Ingo, they’re sure to thoroughly enjoy this debut novel from a bright new talent, as will anyone looking for a well-written and exciting adventure. McAllister’s fabulous underwater world has some terrific descriptions and dark secrets, so good in fact that you almost feel you’re there under the water with Cal and Jake.
Cal is a Silvertail. She never knew her mother, Sylla, and does not know that with her dying breath Sylla bequeathed her daughter the power of the Merrows - the means to battle an evil that threatens the entire ocean. When Cal meets Jake, a Creeper from the Overbreath, the two are drawn to one another.
