AbstractHistoryArchive Description

'Miranda is a shy, gentle, overweight girl who is perennially dumped on. Her life begins to change when she goes to stay with her ex-half-sister-in-law Blossom who runs the rather alternative Cosmos Cafe in Mariner's Bay. As soon as she sees the bay, Miranda knows that it is her own special place. But was it really once a haunt for mermaids? Miranda is about to discover that Magic Happens.'
