Saltie: A survival-horror thriller in croc country.
No signal. No service. Just tidal flats that swallow the road behind you. When four friends take a shortcut through Australia's Northern Territory to reach a hidden swimming hole, the river doesn't warn them - it goes still, then a shape rolls beneath the surface and disappears again.
Their vehicle sinks to the axles as the tide drops, and every plan they make afterward turns into another kind of trap. Mason wants to walk out along the track. Callum wants to wait for the water to turn. Tessa doesn't trust the map, and Elena is the first to find the tracks pressed into the mud - four splayed toes, each one deep enough to hold water.
It isn't hunting them by accident. It already knows the sound of their voices, the shape of their camp, the places they've tried to hide. As the mangroves close in and the light runs out, Saltie asks a simple question: how much of you is still standing on the bank when the water finally goes still?
