Finally! A new book in the popular Shores Mysteries series!
For the first time in thirty years, all the signs have returned to the waters off The Shores. Signs of a presumed gone, possibly legendary giant cod.

At all costs, two powerful men with competing interests are after the biggest cod. They are closing in on The Shores--but the fisherman is missing.
