When Seph Hale returns to her remote island hometown after her parents’ untimely deaths, she braces for cobwebs, creaking floorboards, and unwanted memories. What she isn’t prepared for is the stranger waiting in her parlor with a razor sharp grin and funereal charm who introduces himself simply as Death. His news is worse than the dust collecting on the furniture: Seph is dead too. Only…she has no recollection of it.

As her search for answers about her untimely death leads her back to the island she once called home, she finds the hollowed ground holds secrets as old and murky as the salt sea that surrounds it. In Caligo Harbor, secrets don’t rot—they drown.
