Synopses

Ingo

Sapphy’s father once told her a story about a man who fell in love with a mermaid and swam down into the sea, never to be seen again. When her father is lost at sea, Sapphy cannot let go of the myth and becomes convinced he is still alive. The following summer she meets Faro, and, diving down into Ingo, discovers a world where she must release her “Air” thoughts and embrace the sea, while longing to hear her father’s song across the water.

The Tide Knot

Sapphire and Conor cannot forget their experiences in Ingo and long to see their Mer friends Faro and Elvira again, and to swim with the dolphins once more. But something beyond the storm is troubling, and a crisis is brewing far below, where the wisest of the Mer guards the Tide Knot.

The Deep

A devastating flood has torn through the worlds of Air and Ingo, and deep in the ocean a monster is stirring. Mer legend says only those with dual blood, half Mer and half human, can overcome the Kraken. Sapphy must return to the Deep with help from her friend the whale, and Conor and Faro will not let her face it alone.

The Crossing of Ingo

Sapphire, Conor, and their Mer friends Faro and Elvira prepare to make the Crossing of Ingo, a long and dangerous journey undertaken only by the strongest young Mer. No human has ever attempted the voyage to the bottom of the world. Ervys, his followers, and new recruits, the sharks, are determined to stop Sapphire and Conor, dead or alive.

Stormswept

Morveren lives with her parents and twin sister Jenna on an island off the coast of Cornwall. As their relationship shifts and changes, Morveren finds a beautiful teenage boy in a rock pool after a storm and goes to his rescue, only to discover he is not human but a Mer. With Jenna refusing to face the truth, Morveren is left alone as the worlds of Air and Mer meet, with terrible consequences.
