The Passage Beneath the Breakwater

By Verda Rowe

Julian Ashworth vanishes between breakfast and the second cup of tea. Nine minutes later, every official record insists he died in 1954.

After confronting a power that can erase a woman from memory, Evelyn "Evie" Harcourt and the Vanishing Tide Society face a stranger threat: Harrowsea is no longer merely deleting lives. It is assigning them.

Gannet House shifts around its residents. A false founder emerges from the records. Beneath the Breakwater, a hidden passage holds ledgers capable of deciding who belongs, who returns, and which future each person must inhabit.

To find Julian and protect those the town has already rewritten, Evie must follow the evidence into Harrowsea's oldest covenant-before a chosen identity becomes a sentence.Atmospheric British coastal supernatural mysteryA mature heroine confronting memory and identityFound community, buried histories, and dry witA continuing mature slow-burn relationship

Return to Harrowsea, where surviving erasure was only the beginning.

Book 2 of The Vanishing Tide Society; best read after The Woman the Sea Forgot.
