Alex was a boy who always pined for his fathers approval. Now, he shuffles through life, no real goal nor dreams ahead. He doesnt want a wife, children, a rich job, a farm, nor to be a war hero. Simply being is good enough for him. What will happen after a particularly nasty breakdown he did not expect, where he meets a Siren? In most folk stories, to see a Siren is a death omen hanging over your head. They lure you in, singing of dreams and fantasies, killing you when you least expect it. Fun, huh? But, the Siren is bored - so when she meets a boy who she finds out doesnt have any dreams whatsoever, shes intruiged. And so, what does she do? befriend him of course! Lifes about to get intresting for both of them. And Mary. Poor, poor Mary. So come on this adventure, will they fall in love? will you skip over this book? will the Siren ever find out what happened to Alex's 8th birthday? Spoiler Alert - no to all three questions!
