Synopsis: Mavka is one of the forest lake’s nymphs — creatures with an air of mystique and dangerous allure. When she meets Lukian, a biology whizz, she has one job: to bring him to her lake, where mermaids and other nymphs lie in wait, ready to capture people’s souls. But instead of bringing about Lukian’s ruin, Mavka falls in love with him. As her feelings grow stronger, she starts to realize that the mermaids will go to any length to keep her on the dark side.
