Sixteen-year-old failed selkie and aspiring technomance Valerie Townsend has the worst brother in the world, a career obsessed father, and an estranged mother last seen boarding a plane for Macau.

She might be right about one of them.

At any rate, the last thing that she needs is a prophecy hanging over her head, especially not one involving an ancient and immortal evil! As for taking part in an adventure, Valerie doesn't have time for such nonsense.

Honestly, doesn't the universe realise how important this year is for her education?

An Urban Fantasy/Coming of Age novel, and featuring a neurodiverse main female character and LGBTQA+ themes. Written under a pseudonym by one of Northern Ireland's most prolific indie authors, The Pinnothrope Mance is a gentle story about growing up and finding one's place in the world.

For readers aged 12 years and up.
