In a remote coastal town, strange bones begin washing ashore after decades of calm seas.
The bones don’t belong to any known animal.
The townspeople know exactly what they are.
For generations, the town survived by honoring a secret bargain with the ocean - three lives given in exchange for prosperity and protection. When that bargain was broken, the sea waited.
Now it is collecting what it is owed.
When marine geologist Mara Hale is called back to her hometown to investigate the remains, she uncovers a history of sacrifice, silence, and transformation that refuses to stay buried. As the evidence begins to erase itself and the sea turns its attention toward her, Mara must confront an impossible truth: some debts cannot be forgiven, only paid.
Salt and Bone is a slow-burn, literary horror novel about inherited guilt, impossible choices, and the terrifying cost of survival.
The sea remembers everything.
And it never lets go.
