The Mermaid Call

Description

Vivien's never going to win the Mermaid Crown and she knows it. Does she care? Who wants to be rewarded just for being pretty anyway? So she joins Alice on her quest to find the mermaid of the lake instead. But as the legend starts to unravel, it reveals an ugly truth. And leads the girls into terrible, watery danger...

Alex Cotter has worked hard all her life at daydreaming, while making a living from words: from bookselling at WHSmith and publicising The Booker Prize to copywriting and teaching creative writing. Alex lives near Bath in an ancient house, with cobwebs, creaky floorboards, one husband, two children, and a revolutionary cat called Trotsky. Kathrin is an independent illustrator based in Jakarta, Indonesia. Her works are inspired by her reflective thoughts, faith, and life in general. She loves to use symbolism and visual metaphors to add layers to her works. You can find her work both in print and digital for multinational clients, such as Google, Facebook, HarperCollins, Nosy Crow, Penguin Random House, Usborne Books UK & Holiday House.
