Though it starts slow-as clueless Kit must become acquainted with the author’s paranormal underworld-Liu’s latest is a clever, finely constructed take on the “Little Mermaid” story and delivers great paranormal suspense. Gifted and cursed with the ability to see the future, Kitala Bell must save Mcal, a seductive merman who has risen from the watery depths, from the grasp of an evil witch, a passionate alliance that threatens their lives and their very souls.
