Castle and Crown (Water Rites)

Trouble is coming. Selkies and finfolk are enemies for a reason. Lorelei can't afford to forget it.

Fighting through the storm may be the only way to survive...

Nothing could have prepared Lorelei to live among the finfolk, with all of their alien ways. Life among their mind-reading race isn't safe for her, with all she has to hide.

But Lorelei will do anything to reclaim her sealskin and win her freedom. She has already proven that.

Clay's schemes drive a splintering wedge in the midst of the selkies as he grasps for power. If he gets his way, they'll all be under his control.

And Lorelei's not about to let that happen.

Castle and Crown is the final book in the Water Rites fantasy trilogy, where there's more to sea storms and the ocean's depths than we mere human mortals understand. Where the legends live on, some of them hiding in plain sight, in your town and mine.
