Summary

She lived life online, her final post a cry for help. But the mists of Second Beach answered only with silence.

When the body of a beloved social media star washes up on the rocky shores of Second Beach, panic spreads through the surrounding coastal community. What was once a peaceful haven is now shrouded in fear, and the locals demand answers.

But what begins as a tragic mystery quickly spirals into something far more sinister. Beneath the surface of Washington’s sleepy beach towns lies a hidden underworld—a secretive criminal syndicate that has operated in the shadows for years.

Are they involved? Or is something even darker lurking in the mist?

As Detective Thomas Austin uncovers secret after long-buried secret, he discovers a chilling truth that’s been hiding in plain sight for decades. And the deeper Austin digs, the closer he comes to a devastating revelation that could rock the entire Pacific Northwest.
