What the sea takes for its own can never return
Portugal 1754 Cecilia Lamb knew being a sea captains wife would mean a life of waiting and watching the horizon for her husbands ship But John has been gone longer than any voyage should last Everyone else has given up hope of his return But she knows in her bones that he is not lost Gone but not lost
Barely able to tear her eyes from the shimmering sea she feels drawn to the sunbaked shoreline and amid the bustle of the docks she feels certain that her husband will come back to her Though along with that feeling is another sense that something darker is coming As she sickens she doesnt know what the next tide will bring but she begins to fear as well as crave her husbands homecoming
Soon even on dry land Cecilia can feel the pull of the ocean at her feet the movement of the tides within her Warning seduction or promise she cannot tell but one thing is certain the sea holds many secrets and some of them are too powerful to ever be drowned
