About the Book
Merlin — Where
Imagination Knows No
Limits
When the Sea Raven hauls in the catch of a lifetime off the coast of Ossabaw Island, the crew believes their luck has finally turned. But fortune comes with a price. Strange sonar readings, secret government forces, and whispered warnings hint that something far more powerful — and far more dangerous — has risen from the deep. Caught between survival and secrets, Lee-Mo and his crew must navigate more than treacherous waters: betrayal, hidden pasts, and forces they barely understand are closing in. As the tide pulls them deeper into a world they never imagined, loyalty, love, and the truth will be all that keeps them afloat. In a coastal town where mysteries run as deep as the ocean, they came for love — but they'll fight to survive.
