Just when thirteen-year-old Selena Flowers thought she was safe, strange events plunge her seaside town into peril once more. She must dive back into the dangerous underwater world she narrowly escaped last year to find answers about the chaotic happenings in town.

Beneath the waves, the undead mermaid queen Faustina desperately searches for a powerful ruby necklace while corrupting sea creatures into her zombie army. A sinister dark force is unleashed, spreading its dark magic and corrupting the merkingdom.

With the fate of two realms at stake, Selena must defeat the darkness before it consumes everything and everyone she loves.

About the Author

Ella English grew up in the heart of London, where the hustle and bustle of city life met summer adventures at her grandma’s house on the Kent coast. Exploring tide pools and collecting seashells, she developed a love for the ocean and a knack for creating imaginative worlds that she now brings to life through her writing.

Now living in Baltimore, Maryland, Ella is the author of The Merblood Saga, a dark fantasy YA series that plunges readers into a haunting underwater realm filled with cursed mermaids, ancient magic, and buried secrets. The first book, Selena Flowers and the Cursed Ruby, has been a hit with young readers, drawing them into its mysterious and dangerous world.

Ella also writes and illustrates Kitty in the City, a whimsical series about a singing cat named Katy who takes New York City by storm. The latest installment, Katy in Central Park, will be released in June 2025.

When she’s not weaving dark magic or drawing cats, Ella is kept busy by her two mischievous felines who make sure she stays entertained and grounded. Follow her adventures (and plenty of cat cameos) on Instagram @EllaEnglishAuthor or visit www.ellaenglish.com for more.
