The wild magic in the salt air and the thrum of the sea has always added spice to Beet MacNeil's childhood adventures with her older cousin, Gerry as they explored their Prince Edward Island home. When Gerry comes up the path one early spring morning, he is soaking wet and silent, and he plays a haunting tune on his fiddle that chills Beet to the bone. Things only get worse when Marina Shaw saunters into town and takes an unsettling interest in Gerry's new baby. Local lore is filled with tales of a vicious shape-shifting sea creature and the cold, beautiful woman who controls him--a woman who bears a striking resemblance to Marina--Adapted from book jacket.
