Fourteen-year-old Luce has had a tough life, but she reaches the depths of despair when she is assaulted and left on the cliffs outside of a grim, gray Alaskan fishing village. She expects to die when she tumbles into the icy waves below, but instead undergoes an astonishing transformation and becomes a mermaid. A tribe of mermaids finds Luce and welcomes her in—all of them, like her, lost girls who surrendered their humanity in the darkest moments of their lives. Luce is thrilled with her new life until she discovers the catch: the mermaids feel an uncontrollable desire to drown seafarers, using their enchanted voices to lure ships into the rocks. Luce possesses an extraordinary singing talent, which makes her important to the tribe—she may even have a shot at becoming their queen. However her struggle to retain her humanity puts her at odds with her new friends. Will Luce be pressured into committing mass murder?
The first book in a trilogy,Lost Voicesis a captivating and wildly original tale about finding a voice, the healing power of friendship, and the strength it takes to forgive.

mereu mi-au placut sirenele
Nu stiu cat de populare sunt seriile cu sirene, am mai vazut cateva. Imi place coperta si descrierea, faptul ca au pastrat mitul original al sirenelor.
Coperta este autentica.Nu prea stiu sa fie prea la moda povestile cu sirene dar am observat cateva
Cred ca doar la noi nu sunt la moda, prin strainatate sunt destul de populare.
