About

Mary Elizabeth Griffiths is convinced her father isn't dead-just missing. Captain Bill says he was taken by a kraken, lost to the sea. But Mary, as stubborn as she is brave, won't give up that easily.

It's 1911, on the gloomy Oregon Coast, and when Mary follows a trail of strange clues to the shore, she's pulled into a hidden world beneath the waves-a realm of mermaids, sea serpents, and a kingdom on the brink of war. There, she meets King Anko, a legendary sea serpent who believes Mary's arrival is no accident. But the Queen of the Mermaids, bound by the old ways, sees Mary as nothing more than a defiant child. To prove herself and uncover the truth, Mary must navigate royal rivalries, outwit a wicked sea magician, and confront parts of herself she hasn't yet understood.

The sea doesn't give up its secrets easily.

A tale with heart, humor, and unforgettable characters, The King Beneath the Sea is a bold reimagining of L. Frank Baum's The Sea Fairies-a timeless adventure about grief, grit, and growing up. Perfect for readers who've ever wondered what might be waiting just beyond the tide, this story belongs on the shelf beside Peter Pan, and Treasure Island-a modern classic in the making.
