In an instant the current changed, the sea flattened, the boat settled, and they were riding the tide. The village was behind them again. The moon ahead of them. And a corpse at Kes's feet.

After mandatory leave, Homicide Detective Kes Morris is back. She's assigned to a missing persons case by personal request and direct order of her new captain. Discretion required. Begrudgingly, she travels to the magnificent Bay of Fundy where the young woman was last seen, only to find a dead man floating in the powerful currents. In a village that follows its own code of maritime law and doesn't trust outsiders, Kes is swept into an ever-widening tide of murder, power, secrets, and lies. The deeper she goes, the murkier the case becomes, threatening to pull her under. Guilt and innocence churn in this story of love, retribution, and the lengths we're willing to go for family.

Following Beneath Her Skin, a literary mystery that kept readers "glued to the page until the very end" (The Globe and Mail) Salt on Her Tongue is the thrilling next chapter in the award-winning Kes Morris series.

About the Author

C.S. Porter is a writer, photographer, and filmmaker who lives near the sea and has passed on that love, fear, and awe to Kes.
