Author A.L. Knorr brings us the opening chapter of the prequel trilogy to her Elementals series. As this novella opens we meet Mira as she is choosing to return to the human world after eight years in the ocean. On her way back to the sea side down that she grew up in before her mother passed away of cancer and she lost contact with her father she spots a gold coin on the ocean floor. But she can't find any other even though she knows that once she sells it she will have enough money to return to her human life. She had left home for the sea at the age of eleven and under the circumstances of everything that was going on her mother a siren herself had wanted her to go. She steals some clothes and stays at the local hotel where she learns were to sell the coin and then bumps into Crystal who will ask her if she wants to move in with her and gets her a job at a floating restaurant. This is a good short fantasy novella and if you're just getting into this series like I am, it's a good jumping off point. I highly recommend it and I am looking forward to reading the next book in the series.
