    Summary

    When she’d been a little girl, Caterina’s father had told her stories about how her mother lived in a palace under the sea. He’d spun the tale of her shimmering scales so well that his daughter had nearly forgotten that her mother had just been an unlucky girl from Sreng who’d laid with men for coin. All the same, Caterina still claimed the sea as her birthright. Salt was in her blood, and she was more than willing to spill it to take what she wanted.

    But when she catches a wounded sea serpent in her nets — one who becomes a man with sea-grass hair and a proud glare that has nothing to do with the way he’s making a bloody mess of her deck — she has no choice but to reconsider the truth hidden in old fairytales.
