Bookroo's summary

In Trident City, shark sightings send waves of fear through the community. Pearl's anxiety grows, leading her to accuse her friend Kiki of theft. With a Shark Guard escorting her, Pearl must navigate the treacherous waters of friendship and fear. Can she uncover the truth and find solace in unexpected places, or will her suspicions drive her friends away? Dive into this undersea adventure where danger lurks and true friendship might be the key to safety.

From the publisher

Pearl’s fear of sharks is not unfounded–but can she find a way to feel safe in this Mermaid Tales adventure? Late-breaking news from the Trident City Tide: There have been shark sightings in Trident City! No swimming alone! Pearl’s father even hires a Shark Guard to escort her to school. Pearl starts stirring up lots of trouble with anything that has to do with sharks, even denouncing the skeleton Kiki has in her room. And then, to make matters worse, Pearl accuses Kiki of stealing her precious pearl necklace! And though the undersea waters are indeed filled with danger, Pearl just might discover that true friends can provide a sense of safety!
