The love of money is the root of all evil—but for Wayne Vermont, wealth has always meant a life without limits.
Reckless, spoiled, and heir to a fortune, Wayne has never had to worry about the consequences of his actions. Until he's kidnapped and abandoned in a small fishing town called Davenport, where he's given a choice: spend a year working at the local fishing depot or risk losing the inheritance he's always taken for granted.
But when a violent storm sweeps him overboard, Wayne's life changes forever.
As he struggles beneath the waves, a haunting song draws him toward a mysterious girl. Then darkness takes him.
When Wayne wakes on the shore, he has no memory of how he survived—or who saved him. But when the strange girl appears again, he finds himself inexplicably drawn to her.
Unable to speak, unfamiliar with the human world, and hiding a secret that defies explanation, she turns Wayne's carefully controlled life upside down. As their bond deepens, he begins to suspect that the girl who saved him is connected to something far more mysterious than he could have imagined.
And the closer he gets to her, the more he realizes that some secrets are better left beneath the waves.
