Description
The second Sea Detective mystery
A young woman stands on a remote beach in North West Scotland, gazing out to sea. Watching her is Cal McGill, the Sea Detective, an oceanographer with a reputation for solving crimes by tracking human bodies. Soon Cal is helping her unravel the events of twenty-six years ago when a different woman walked across this sweep of sand and into the waves, apparently drowning herself and her unborn child. As McGill questions the official history he’s forced to confront his personal demons as well as the jealousies and tensions of a divided coastal community determined to keep its secrets buried.
