Meet Layla McKelland:Novelist (unpublished, but cut her some slack…seventeen is a bit early to despair),Slightly neurotic introvert (Alright, let's be honest…there's no "slightly" about it),International Woman of Mystery, and…Okay, just scratch the bio.The only real "mystery" in Layla's life is why her father has never been on the scene. Or why her mother drags Layla to a new coastal home every year.Nothing about the latest hometown seems too newsworthy…until a routine day at the beach leaves Layla questioning whether she's read one too many paranormal fantasy novels. The plot thickens when a random guy claims to know things about her father—a bizarre claim he backs up with an equally impossible stunt. And Layla soon finds herself on the wrong side of a mysterious attempted drowning…on her own kitchen floor.When all is done, Layla will attest that fact is far stranger than fiction. And nothing in real life is ever as transparent as it seems…Not even water.Especially not water.
