Siren

For seventeen years, John Wall has sailed the seas, braving storms and pirates to bring his cargo safely into port. Sometimes he sees the Siren and hears her clarion voice above the crashing waves: "Come to me, John Wall. Come to me."

But the Siren's song is death, so John resists its lure-until the night he meets the King of Storms. Masts shattered, sheets ripped and sails torn, his men gone, John clings fiercely to the wreckage, defying death. And the Siren comes for him. "Come to me," her sweet voice sings.

Their lips locked in a kiss, John Wall slips beneath the sea. What has he found? Heaven? Hell? Or something beyond his wildest imagination.
