Marisa always knew she was different—in a special way. When she was just a little girl, her father introduced her to her celestial sister, MoonGlow. Throughout her life, Marisa has been aware of mysteries and magic just beyond what she can see. Now in her early forties, she’s come to a turning point. She is a young widow, and her son has left for college. It’s time for a new dream…and with hope and a mystical “knowing,” she buys a supposedly haunted house near the Great Liquid…the ocean, which has always inspired respect and fear in her. As she inhabits her haven by the ocean, she comes to realize that it isn’t haunted: it is alive with spirits who want to draw her into a realm where past and present merge—where she can learn of the journey that brought her here. As she surrenders to her sister MoonGlow, and the moon’s ancient lover High Tide in an ecstatic dance of fate, Marisa will see the triumphs and tragedies of a past that intertwines with the present, as old friends and lovers become new, as past sorrow pierces her present karma, and past joy flowers into new beginnings. Immersed in High Tide’s wonder, guided by MoonGlow, Marisa will truly discover what lies hidden in liquid.
