Temple Banks and the Lost Mermaid

Two teens' summer vacation at the beach is turned upside down when a young mermaid appears and asks them for help to get home. The Navy's sonar testing is at it again, and this time, it's pushed poor Coral way off course and too far from home. Her sense of direction isn't working.Almost out of hope, Coral spots two teenagers on the beach in Ocean City, MD, and takes a chance at asking them for help. Temple Banks and her friend Brad at first don't believe their eyes and ears, but Coral quickly teaches them that mermaids do exist and, as marine mammals, they can suffer the same sonic disruptions as dolphins and whales.Unable to convince her father to help, Temple relies on an old friend and his fishing boat. Together, they join up to lead Coral home. Unfortunately, someone else spotted Coral too, and he's only out for himself. Adventure ensues when Temple refuses to give up, and soon, she and Brad are being pursued by a money-hungry millionaire who only wants to capture Coral and sell her to the highest bidder.
