About this listen

Things are quiet in the morning, especially in an unassuming town like Aledale. When sixteen-year-old Jan (often referred to as “Jinx”) and her best friend Shelley attempt to catch low tide early in the morning at the local cove, Jan uncovers a little box with a mermaid carved into the lid, adorned with shining emerald eyes and a mysterious message and locket inside. After putting the necklace on, Jan begins to experience painful and unsettling episodes that leave her floundering for an explanation. Accompanied with the unrelenting desire to keep the locket close, Jan drags Shelley on a search for clues as to whom the necklace and box belong to. As they fall further into the intricate web spun by the people trying to get back what they claim is theirs, Jan and Shelley learn about a peculiar legend and why what they found needs to fall into the right hands. But not all hands are the right ones, and not all secrets can be kept. After all, some things are predestined to be jinxed.

Charming, Suspenseful, and Mysterious

I listened to the audiobook format of this novel. The literature is beautifully penned, and the voice actor skillfully tells the story with so much charm and grace. Two sixteen-year-old friends are thrilled to spend the summer together while Jan’s parents are out of the country. The ocean setting, scenes of carnivals, marinas and sky’s-the-limit summer fun is all set in the year 1972 long before cell phones and social media. The girls decide to collect ocean shells and silver dollars to sell at a gift shop when they witness a strange boat with two men throwing something overboard. The girls wait until the boat leaves and dive for the hidden treasure and are elated when they find a mysterious box containing a necklace. The language reflects an earlier more innocent era, although the author does bring some thrilling scenes and even horror into the mix as the mysterious necklace proves to be more than what they could have ever dreamed of. The story is well written and well performed.
