Blood Sucking Mermaids

The Book, Blood Sucking Mermaids is a series of Journals written by various stakeholders in the story who know that Mermaids are here on Earth. Government entities have been using them as weapons since World War 2. 

 Eli is a young boy who is curious about wildlife along the creek in the woods behind his house. He watches animals prey on one another and also care for one another. 

He fishes and swims in the local watering holes of the Cape Fear area. Until one surreal day when his best friend is pulled into the pond and viciously murdered by a small pale humanoid creature who swims like a fish. Eli dedicates his life to finding this thing that killed his friend. 

Eli soon meets a new girl, Lena, with whom he has much in common. Lena shows him affection but keeps him on his toes emotionally. They go their separate ways. Lena tries to cope with her Eccentric Father who is both a Musician with a cult following and a Secret Military Operative.

Eli becomes an expert Diver and is shipped off to Vietnam. He returns a changed person. In his search for truth, Eli always holds hope that he can find out why his friend had to die as a boy in that pond.

   The Book has a character driven style, and offers plot twists. It delivers a creepy and sinking, conspiracy styled tale that makes us question “What really do we know about our existence ?” Humans are trying to be good, although we pollute and have little compassion for Earth.  Are Humans indeed a virus from another galaxy ? Will the Mermaids continue to allow us free reign ?
