A fin-tastic follow-up to The Tail of Emily Windsnap and Emily Windsnap and the Monster from the Deep!

Ever since I discovered I was part mermaid, nothing in my life has been simple. So when I spotted the gigantic diamond ring on the seabed, I should have turned on my tail and swum away. I most definitely shouldn’t have put it on.

But how was I supposed to know that the ring was one half of the key to unlocking an ancient curse–a curse put in place by Neptune himself? And now Neptune has put a curse on me, too: in a few days, I’ll no longer be half-human and half-mermaid, and I’ll have to say good-bye forever to one of my parents. Unless, with the help of a mysterious boy named Aaron, I can find the missing ring and break all of the curses at once. . . .
Liz Kessler's first book, The Tail of Emily Windsnap, was published in ten countries. Of Emily Windsnap and Monster from the Deep, she says, "I always knew that Emily's story wasn't finished at the end of the first book. I really wanted to explore the idea of an island where humans and merfolk lived together in peace. I also knew that there was a detail I was missing. Then I happened to see an in-flight video about a theme park with a ride called the Kraken, and I instantly knew that this creature was the missing ingredient." Liz Kessler lives on a canal boat in the countryside just outside Manchester, England, where she is working on her third book, Emily Windsnap and the Castle in the Mist.
