Excerpt from Suffer A Sea Change:
Prologue
How long had she been mad? Before the shipwreck, before this imprisonment at the
bottom of the sea, surely she had been sane.
Adina remembered sunlight, and jungle, and Saio, her lover.
Now all was darkness, and cold, and water that continuously choked her but could not
kill her.
She pounded for the thousandth time on the steel walls of her prison, screamed for help
with a voice long deprived of the oxygen needed to produce sound.
She scratched at the seams and tore her fingers until they bled, and when, after
decades of trying, she managed to push out one rusting rivet, Adina sent her cry for help
through the tiny black hole into a blackness just as deep beyond it.
Still Saio didn't come.
Something else did.
A girl. Her body sank toward Adina, struggling against death and finally succumbing.
Other ghostly familiars had come and gone. This one, a corpse so fresh that she still
didn’t realize she was dead, gave Adina the key to escape.
