Synopsis
Emily Windsnap and the Tides of Time places Emily in a race against history itself, as she discovers that both her human hometown and the merfolk community she belongs to are threatened by danger rooted in events from the past. To have any hope of protecting the people she cares about on land and beneath the sea, Emily must find a way to travel through time, confronting circumstances and figures from earlier eras that connect directly to the present crisis. Balancing her responsibilities to both sides of her identity, Emily has to piece together what went wrong in the past and act carefully to prevent history from repeating itself, all while contending with the disorientation and risk that come with moving between different points in time.
