The Deep Summary

The Deep by Helen Dunmore

The third spellbinding story about Sapphy and Conor's adventures in the powerful and dangerous underwater world of Ingo.

A devastating flood has torn through the worlds of Air and Ingo, and now, deep in the ocean, a monster is stirring. Mer legend says that only those with dual blood - half Mer, half human - can overcome the Kraken.

Sapphy must return to the Deep, with the help of her friend the whale, and face this terrifying creature - and her brother Conor and Mer friend Faro will not let her go alone...
