The sea took the girl. Time took her name.

After the wars, Hagatna fell hushed. Tasi - restless and bright - slipped to the reef where a siren waited with a black opal conch. At home, her mother's patience frayed; her grandmother warned that spirits were listening. One bitter outburst became a curse, and the sea answered.

Sailors spoke of a girl in the foam. Priests spread a warning about la sirena - the siren. The word traveled farther than the truth - until it swallowed the girl's name.

The Siren's Daughter is a haunting CHamoru retelling set just after the Spanish-Chamorro wars: a tale of mothers and daughters, desire and duty, and what the ocean keeps while history erases.

Includes a traditional telling of the Sirena legend and an Author's Note.
