The Pirates of Meara

A YA Fantasy of Pirates, City Secrets, and a Reluctant Hero

A silver-eyed girl washes ashore, and nothing in Mouse’s life is quiet again.

Fern is a duke’s daughter, stolen by pirates and cast adrift—alone—in a city she doesn’t understand.
Mouse is a street orphan who thought he knew Meara—until the city begins whispering secrets only he can hear.

Now the pirate Bluebeard hunts them both—but the truth runs deeper, hidden in stone and salt. Because Mouse isn’t just a quiet boy with a borrowed name—he’s the key to an undersea world the city has not forgotten.

Set in the kingdom of Liamec, The Pirates of Meara is a magical tale of friendship, lost cities, and tides that pull us home—perfect for fans of The Chronicles of Prydain and The True Confessions of Charlotte Doyle.

The tide is turning. Meara is calling.
