The Twelve Dancing Princesses becomes a horror story in this sea tossed retelling.

The Thaumas sisters live on the edge of an island. Each time someone in the household dies the body is returned to the water. Lately, the sisters have been given to “the brine” on a regular basis. To bring some cheer to their lives, the remaining girls escape to sumptuous midnight dances. But sisters keep dying and Annaleigh is visited by horrific visions, often related to the nighttime parties. Who, or what, is cursing the Thaumas girls?
