Requests:  0 Summary:  "Penelope Schleeman, a consistently broke Connecticut high school teacher, is as surprised as anyone when her sensitive debut novel, "American Mermaid"--the story of a wheelchair-bound scientist named Sylvia who discovers that her withered legs are the vestiges of a powerful tail--becomes a bestseller. Penelope soon finds herself lured to LA by promises of easy money to co-write the "American Mermaid" screenplay for a major studio with a pair of male hacks. As the studio pressures Penelope to change "American Mermaid" from the story of a fierce, androgynous eco-warrior to a teen sex object in a clam bra, strange things start to happen. Threats appear in the screenplay draft; siren calls lure people into danger. When Penelope's screenwriting partners try to kill Sylvia off entirely in a bitterly false but cinematic end, matters off the page escalate. Is Penelope losing her mind, or is Sylvia among us?"--Provided by publisher.   Copy/Holding information Location Collection Call No. Status   Aiea Public Library Adult Fiction Langbein Checked In Add Copy to MyList Kailua-Kona Public Library Adult Fiction Langbein Checked In Add Copy to MyList Kapaa Public Library Adult Fiction Langbein Checked In Add Copy to MyList Kapolei Public Library Adult Fiction Langbein Checked In Add Copy to MyList Koloa P/S Library Adult Fiction Langbein Checked In Add Copy to MyList McCully-Moiliili Public Library Adult Fiction Langbein Checked In Add Copy to MyList Waikiki-Kapahulu Public Library Adult New Books Langbein Checked In Add Copy to MyList Wailuku Public Library Adult Fiction Langbein Checked In Add Copy to MyList
