    Princess Aren is determined to make the human  who killed her mother and exiled her people to the bottom of the ocean pay.  To do so, she must go to extremes of pain and heartache in her search for justice.
          
          Aren, however, is no sweet, happy mermaid.  To kill is to ignite a fire of passion in her heart which only the savage letting of blood can satiate.  She will go to any lengths to find the man responsible, including cutting off her own tail and sewing, in its place, a pair of human legs - legs she tore from one of the many humans she had murdered.
          
          With the unwilling help of the sea witch, Princess Aren must go ashore and hunt for her mother's killer.  But, in doing so, the worlds above and below the ocean will clash in ways neither thought possible!
          
          And the Meek Shall Walk - a 'beautiful' and 'savage' retelling of a classic story!
