Follow the siren call to Emily’s magical new adventure! Can the spunky half-mer girl pass Neptune’s test—and help humans and merpeople get along?Emily Windsnap is finally enjoying a swimmingly peaceful life on Allpoints Island, hanging out with her mermaid BFF, Shona, and her new friend Aaron (half-merperson like herself ). But their idyll is cut short when Emily learns that the Windsnaps and friends must return to their old home in Brightport, where construction projects are threatening a secret mermaid community under the sea. Neptune’s mandate? No less than an interspecies intervention to bring merpeople and humans together, a task the imperious god feels the mixed Windsnap family is well suited for. There are just a few snags for Emily, however, like dealing with old nemeses Mandy and Mr. Beeston, figuring out her feelings toward Aaron, and untangling a high-suspense mystery related to a group of legendary lost sirens. Everyone’s favorite half-mermaid is back with a splash in a sparkling new adventure her fans will be eager to get their fins on.

I thought that "Emily Windsnap and the Castle in the Mist" had a good ending, but this didn't take away from it as much as I thought it would, I still don't think this book was a necessary addition to the series. The title didn't work as well as it could have.
Charming finish to this series. Touching at the end with (spoiler alert!) the humans and merpeople learning to get along. Emily gets a boyfriend, keeps her mermaid friend, and makes (or remakes) a human friend. It's a satisfying read.
