ABOUT THE BOOK

In 1841, Marta Ray, discontented in a whaling town, will discover an unknown world within the place she hated most-the sea. Rescued from the sea by a gruff captain, Marta’s disdain for the ocean transforms to determination when a wish unravels dark secrets.

Amidst a mysterious and stormy night, tragedy strikes, transforming her life and unveiling an undersea kingdom beyond her wildest imagination. Finding home, friendship, oddities, and an unexpected destiny, Marta’s journey uncovers mysteries beyond belief. Her quest for answers intertwines and collides with the unimaginable, forever changing her life.

Pulsating with magic, history, and myth, join Marta on her extraordinary odyssey as she discovers the transformative power within her heart.

Marta Ray and the Undersea Kingdom explores different themes of fantasy, action, acceptance, history, mythology, and the power of imagination.
