They thought they were saved. They thought wrong.
Sydney Gao has a secret - she's a mermaid. Unfortunately, her mother forbade her from telling anyone and kept Sydney land-locked in the Midwest all her life. After learning Selkie slavers kidnapped her best friend Garrett Weaver though, Sydney ran away in hopes of rescuing him and finding someone like her to swim with.
But Garrett is different now...and Sydney doesn't understand it. All she's ever wanted is to explore the Salt capital city and to share her secret with someone.
Meanwhile, Garrett just wants to go ashore and return home. Because after his traumatic experiences in Crayfish Cavern, Garrett knows all too well what Sydney does not - that the Salt is far from the place where dreams come true...and she isn't the only one who's been keeping secrets.
