About this listen
In a future reshaped by the melting ice caps, eleven-year-old Eliza wakes to a world of mermaids and pirates. On an island commune led by the kindly Harris, Eliza befriends the curious Travers, only to discover the dark secret that divides them: the imprisonment and exploitation of the mermaid Senara, feared as dangerous by the islanders.
As Eliza delves deeper into this world of intrigue and tyranny, she finds herself drawn into a daring adventure alongside Magnus, a young street magician, and Cassidy, a recluse with a mysterious connection to the mermaids and to Blythe, the formidable captain of the pirate ship, The Heartbreak. Together, they embark on a journey to confront Bartomew Spinks, the narcissistic Administrator of the West, in a tale that blends fantastical adventure with themes of friendship and the consequences of our actions.
Listeners of all ages are invited to join Eliza on a journey of self-discovery where every decision holds the power to shape the future.
