Seeking title and author please: I read a cool library book in the 80s in Australia about a family who goes to a holiday house on a cove and they find mermaids there. They keep it secret. Im 100% sure the title doesn’t have the word mermaids in it, but I’m pretty sure it has the word “cove” or “bay”. Young adult/teen. I think the book was English or American.

Hi, welcome to SF&F! Do you remember any details of the cover art, or any names? If you remember anything else about the book, even if was paperback vs. hardcover, please edit that information into the question.– DavidWCommented Jul 26, 2022 at 13:21

FWIW, I searched ISFDb for novels with "bay" or "cove" in the title published between 1940 and 1989, without finding any mermaid stories.– DavidWCommented Jul 26, 2022 at 14:16

Not a match, but I am reminded of "The Case of the Mother-in-law of Pearl" by Avram Davidson, one of the Doctor Estherhazy series.– David SiegelCommented Jul 26, 2022 at 18:29
