Ana Maia lives in balance. A ballerina by passion, a protector of sea turtles by calling, and a resident of the idyllic Blue Island, she believes she has found her place in the world. Until the day an unexpected event leads her to cross a portal between two worlds — and nothing is ever the same again.

Among marine creatures, ancient conflicts, and threats rising from both the surface and the depths, she must uncover her true role in this unfolding destiny.
