In the quiet coastal town of Echo Bay, secrets run deeper than the tides - and one detective is about to uncover a truth no one wants revealed.
When the body of 22-year-old Jesse Reardon washes ashore near the abandoned cannery, Detective Erin Calder knows this is no ordinary drowning. Jesse was a familiar face in the small community, but whispers tell of dangerous debts, midnight meetings at the marina, and strangers who don't belong in a fishing town.
As Erin pushes deeper into the investigation, she's met with an unsettling wall of silence. Locals avert their eyes, friends change the subject, and fear hangs in the salt-thick air. Each lead pulls her toward a hidden underworld - illegal gambling, a growing drug trade, and a force that controls Echo Bay from the shadows.
The closer Erin gets to the truth, the more she realizes that in Echo Bay, some secrets are worth killing for... and finding answers may cost her everything.
Perfect for fans of atmospheric crime thrillers, small-town mysteries, and slow-burn suspense.
