When the body of a stylish young gentleman is discovered floating in Nanaimo's harbour, Rose Ivy the Tattooed Lady finds her winter holiday cut short. With the help of grouchy Dr. Hector Kane, Rose must recreate the events of the man's last evening at the Nanaimo Opera House, but as they follow in his footsteps, nothing is quite what it seems.
The horrors of the Great War and the Spanish Flu pandemic still echo through society, and the man's unconventional marriage to a reclusive heiress hides a trove of childhood secrets and rivalries.
Can Rose untangle the events of his final evening, decipher the tragedy of his past, and follow the clues to his killer?
Winter storms and a shocking maritime disaster kick off a tale of intrigue, affairs, curses and class struggle. As she examines the enigmatic lives of Nanaimo's upper crust, Rose soon discovers that sinister forces drift just below the surface of A Bitter Tide.
A Bitter Tide is the sixth book in the Circus Salmagundi Mysteries.
