✦ Synopsis

Turning sixteen can be hell, especially if everyone in town thinks your mother killed herself and your sister. All Kira Callahan wants to do is swim, hang out with her best friend, Sean, and ignore the kids who torment her at school. That is, until one day when she gets invited to a party. For three minutes her life is wonderful—she even kisses Sean. Then somebody spikes her drink and some girls from out of town lure her into the ocean and hold her underwater.

Kira soon discovers that the group of wild teenagers who have come to visit Crescent Moon Bay are not as innocent as they seem. In fact, nothing is as it seems—not the mysterious deaths of her sister and mother, not her heritage, not even her best friend. And everything seems to hinge on the ancient Celtic legends that her mother used to tell her as a child.

Review

"Gripping and romantic, Fathom is a new twist on an ancient mythology."--Kimberly Derting, author of The Body Finder series

“With a mixture of first love, a plot filled with emotional twist and a heart wrenching climax, I can only hope this is just beginning for Kira and Co. Fans of Rachel Vincent’s Soul Screamers series will want to look out for this one!”—Jo from Vampire Book Club

"Beautifully written and very evocative, Fathom is a fantastic story full of excitement, mystery, love and grief."—Cath from Book Chatter Cath

"Wow! Every book Merrie Destefano writes is even better than the last. I loved the books she wrote before, but Fathom is unquestionably my favorite of her stories."—Becca from The Writer's Sword

"I can't wait to read the next book, because this has series written all over it." —LaQuita from Just Us Girls
