Young Galahad Stormcrane comes to a small seaside kingdom to investigate the loss of a Guardian of the Seal—only to find that this guardian has abandoned her post, and made a deal with a sea witch to become human. However, if the prince refuses to marry her, she will die, and the Great Seal will fall into the hands of incredible evil. For the sake of the entire realm, Galahad must somehow arrange a marriage between a royal prince and a mermaid who cannot speak. But what if his own guarded heart becomes entangled?

But the fingers of Lenin’s Red Terror are long, and she may not remain safe, even here. Especially when Soviet soldiers come to Semenov...
And among them is the man who secretly saved her life.
