Galveston, 1900. The city believes it has mastered the sea. The sea knows better.
Mari has always belonged to the Gulf-hidden beneath its waves, guided by its tides, and bound to secrets humanity has long forgotten. But when the water begins to change and the sea whispers a warning she cannot ignore, Mari does the unthinkable. She steps onto land.
In prosperous, glittering Galveston-the famed Queen of the Gulf-Mari discovers a world of crowded wharves, grand homes, electric streetcars, impossible corsets, and people who have built their lives beside an ocean they believe they understand. With the help of warmhearted Maggie O'Leary, Mari begins learning what it means to live among humans. Then she meets Jameson Sullivan.
As head of one of Galveston's prominent shipping families, Jameson has spent his life trusting numbers, schedules, and the harbor that built his family's fortune. Mari is unlike anyone he has ever known: mysterious, fiercely observant, unintentionally amusing-and strangely certain that something is coming.
As their worlds draw closer together, so does the danger gathering beyond the horizon. On September 8, 1900, the deadliest natural disaster in American history will devastate Galveston and claim thousands of lives. History remembers the storm, but history never knew about the woman who came from the sea, until now.
Blending historical fiction, romance, mermaid folklore, and the haunting history of the Great Storm of 1900, The Last Mermaid of Galveston is a sweeping story of love, survival, belonging, family, and the extraordinary lives hidden within the history we think we know.
