Darned Mermaids (Verflixte Nixen 🇩🇪) is an urban fantasy, buddy comedy perfect for fans of the “grumpy vs. sunshine“-dynamic, absurd monster hunts, and action as sharp as the protagonists’ biting dialogue.
It’s The Nice Guys meets Hellboy with a dash of fun Die Hard-action.
When the Fairy Tale Police show up at Martha Oak’s door, she braces for the usual accusations. But when their terrifying chief, Rosenrot, marches in with a job offer, Martha knows it’s bad.
Like ‘you-don’t-have-a-choice’ bad.
Now, the witch with a talent for rule-breaking is forced to team up with the one person who’d love to see her behind bars.
The job? Dangerous. The monsters? Deadly.
The company? Utterly insufferable.
Get ready for creepy monsters, brutal action, and an unlikely team-up that could end up in murder … accidentally, of course!
Two headstrong women, a dangerous task,
zero chance of playing nice.
The novella is inspired by German fairy tales, myths, and locations.
