____________
Kate and Flora have always been haunted by a mystery - their mother, Christine, vanished without trace when they were children.
But now Kate has a more urgent problem:Flora has disappeared too.
In desperation, she searches Flora's house, and finds a scrap of paper with a name scribbled on it: Cal McGill.
Cal is a 'sea detective': an expert in the winds and the tides, and consequently adept at finding lost things - and lost people.
Can Cal find Flora?
And might he even know the secret of what happened to their mother, all those years ago . . . ?
'I'm completely addicted to this series'Dermot O'Leary

A first-class mystery - perplexing and at times disturbing
A first-class mystery . . . satisfying, intelligent and compelling, perhaps the finest, so far, of the Sea Detective series - a series that is established already as one of the best in contemporary crime fiction
The unusual background and the layered plots make this a series for those who enjoy their puzzles dense and strange
It's a first-class mystery, perplexing and at times disturbing, but also with a couple of comic scenes to lighten the atmosphere
Full of suspense, a gripping 'whodunnit' laced with psychological tension. Douglas-Home is an author who can pull the wool over the reader's eyes until the very end
