She goes to the cove to find him, but instead meets Faro, an enigmatic and intriguing Merman. The following summer her brother Conor keeps disappearing for hours on end.

When he is lost at sea she can't help but think of that old myth she's convinced he's still alive. Sapphire's father told her that story when she was little. She swam up the stream to hear him sing, then one day he swam down it and was never seen again. She fell in love with a human, but she was a Mer creature and so she couldn't come to live with him up in the dry air. You'll find the mermaid of Zennor inside Zennor church. Master storyteller Helen Dunmore writes the story of Sapphire and her brother Conor, and their discovery of INGO, a powerful and exciting world under the sea.
