Publisher's Synopsis
When Dodie Fanshaw goes to stay with her daughter Elena, she is expecting a sedate village on the banks of the River Thames, but then a mermaid clambers out of the river and into Elena's garden. Well, not a mermaid exactly, but a mysterious, sopping-wet girl. When they call on Elena's neighbour, novelist Rick Wilbraham, they find Anna, his girlfriend, hysterically clinging to Rick's lifeless body. A literary puzzle, but what genre is the motive? It could be Romance, might be Financial Thriller - and the mermaid? Well, that's just pure Fantasy...
