Summary:
Cal McGill watches the young
woman
through the dirty windshield of his Toyota. There's something compelling about her stillness, about the length of time she has been standing, staring out to
sea
. What has brought her to this remote beach, he asks himself. Is she a kindred spirit
who
finds refuge by the shore? Idle curiosity soon turns
into
another investigation for oceanographer and loner McGill as he embarks on a quest to discover why, 26 years earlier, another young
woman
walked
into
these same waves. According to the police, she killed herself and her unborn baby. McGill, the
Sea
Detective, questions this version of events and confronts the jealousies, tensions, and threats of a coastal community determined to hold on to its secrets.
