Long ago, Tangaloa cast a fiery net upon the waters and drew forth ocean’s might. The crashing wave. The surging tide that speaks to Masina the moon. And all the living things that swim and creep in the midnight blue depths. All this Tangaloa fashioned with godly hands into Telesa Vasa Loloa. She was beautiful. Sacred one of ocean. A fierce warrior. Called to watch over earth, and stand guardian against Man, he that had chosen to be the destroyer… He's a marine biologist. She's a warrior guardian of Oceania. Will their shared love for the sea bring them together, or tear them apart? When danger threatens the island of Niua, an ancient weapon is unleashed and Daniel Tahi must decide if he will embrace his Tongan heritage and stand alongside the Vasa Loloa sisterhood of his mother's people. A standalone novel from the Telesa World. Inspired by mythology of Oceania, the richness of Samoan culture and the very real threats to the Pacific caused by climate change.
