The ocean has always called to Ava. She never imagined it was calling her home.

Thirteen-year-old Ava has spent her life feeling strangely connected to the ocean. Then a startling encounter at the beach shatters everything she believes about her family - and reveals that the life she remembers may have been built on a lie.

Beneath the waves, Ava discovers Moonreef, a hidden kingdom of merfolk, selkies, and ancient magic. But the closer she gets to the truth about her past, the more danger closes in around her.

Now people Ava is only beginning to trust are in danger, her new abilities are becoming harder to control, and time is running out. With a sharp-tongued selkie, and a handful of unlikely allies beside her, Ava must uncover the truth about her past before the forces hunting her destroy any chance she has of choosing her own future.

Some truths can set you free.

Others can drag you beneath the surface.

Stolen From the Sea is a fast-paced underwater fantasy full of magic, danger, humor, and heart-perfect for fans of hidden kingdoms, fierce heroines, and stories about discovering that courage does not mean facing the darkness alone.

The first book in the Secrets of the Tide series.

Written by Natalia Bauer, who began creating this story when she was eleven years old.

A Note for Parents and Caregivers: Stolen From the Sea is an emotionally layered fantasy for readers ages 11 and up. Alongside mermaids, magic, humor, and adventure, the story includes family secrets and manipulation, non-graphic fantasy violence, intense danger, grief, and loss. These themes are handled with care and resolved with hope. Parents of younger or more sensitive readers may wish to read alongside them.
