The Return Tide Setting: A fictional coastal town, Port Sentinel (inspired by The Bay ) The rain came sideways that morning, lashing the windows of the morgue as DS Leah Armstrong pulled her collar up and ducked inside. Port Sentinel hadn't seen her in six months — not since the Hollingbrooke case left her with a fractured rib and a suspended badge.

The line went dead.

Ellie Marsden, the chief's daughter, a bright-eyed marine biologist who'd gone missing two days ago. Her car was found parked at the old ferry dock, engine running, phone on the seat. No blood. No note. Just a single barnacle-encrusted key on the dashboard — the kind that opened the old lighthouse keeper's cottage.

She wasn't supposed to be back. But the call came at 4 a.m. from DCI Marsden: "Leah. It's Ellie."

Leah knew that cottage. Fifteen years ago, as a teenager, she'd snuck in there with Ellie. They'd found a hidden room behind the spiral staircase, filled with photographs of missing women from the 1990s. They'd promised to tell someone. They never did.

Now, stepping into the cottage again, Leah felt the weight of that silence. The air smelled of brine and rot. The photographs were gone, but the walls still bore faint rectangular stains — ghosts of evidence.

This wasn't just a disappearance. This was an unearthing.
