Through Sea Glass, Darkly

By: Geraldine Glodek

A lonely cabin on Canada's Bay of Fundy, where the fifty-foot tides demand careful vigilance. Nova Scotia friends, Lucie and Monique, hole up there to escape from Monique's violent husband.

But this safe haven becomes a crime scene when someone shoots an American woman camping nearby and runs off with her toddler. Lucie promises the dying mother she'll make sure the child gets home. Then she discovers that the assailant in the dark was not some stranger. It was Monique. Mad with grief after her own child drowned that morning, Monique believes she has just rescued her own little Antoine from a kidnapper.

Review from Booklife/Publishers Weekly:

This twisty contemporary thriller treks through the harsh and striking scenery of Nova Scotia's Bay of Fundy region as well as the psychologically complex relationship between a hard, misguided woman and the boy determined to outsmart her. Lucie steps in to cover up the crime and, due to Monique's hospitalization, take over "Antoine's" upbringing. Both Lucie and Antoine are well-drawn protagonists, yet . . . at the intersection of an innocent boy's search for his hidden history and a beloved friend's insanity, Lucie remains the psychological heart of this intense narrative.

Great for fans of: N.L. Blandford, Jennifer Hillier's Little Secrets.
