AbstractHistoryArchive Description

'When Gwendal returns home after many years sailing the seas, his inability to speak his own language could determine whether he lives or dies at the hands of a wily mermaid!

'Based around the legend of the sunken city of Kêr-Ys, this story tells the tale of one boy's discovery of his heritage that his seafaring father so longs for him to connect with.' (Publication summary)
