This story is about Amaya aka Silverfish, who is only a few days away from getting free from the debtor ship she works on to pay off her family’s debt. But when a man falls in the water, she saves him from drowning and in turn increases her days on the ship. That event unfolds many secrets of her life and ultimately set her on a path of revenge. But she never expected to meet Cayo, the son of the man she vowed to destroy.
