    Product Information

    A GUARDIAN, THE TIMES, DAILY TELEGRAPH AND EVENING STANDARD BOOK OF THE YEAR 2018. SHORTLISTED FOR THE WOMEN'S PRIZE FOR FICTION. 'A cracking historical novel' The Times 'Pure storytelling pleasure' Metro One September evening in 1785, the merchant Jonah Hancock hears urgent knocking on his front door. One of his captains is waiting eagerly on the step. He has sold Jonah's ship for what appears to be a mermaid. As gossip spreads through the docks, coffee shops, parlours and brothels, everyone wants to see Mr Hancock's marvel. Its arrival spins him out of his ordinary existence and through the doors of high society. At an opulent party, he makes the acquaintance of Angelica Neal, the most desirable woman he has ever laid eyes on... and a courtesan of great accomplishment. This meeting will steer both their lives onto a dangerous new course, on which they will learn that priceless things come at the greatest cost. Where will their ambitions lead? And will they be able to escape the destructive power mermaids are said to possess? In this spell-binding story of curiosity and obsession, Imogen Hermes Gowar has created an unforgettable jewel of a novel, filled to the brim with intelligence, heart and wit.

        Here's why this seller is great: the books are always as described; the communication is always friendly and super-helpful; the books are always carefully packaged (in proper sturdy cardboard book boxes); they are always posted quickly; delivery is with Royal Mail (a huge bonus for someone like me who lives in a very rural area where couriers don't deliver) and you're buying from a small business who actually care about their customers. My lovely book arrived safely today. Thank you so much.
