Marine archaeologist Eve Calder has built her career salvaging what the sea tried to keep. When a secretive London collector offers her the find of a lifetime - the preserved skeleton of a non-human saint, hidden in a shrine on a South Pacific seamount - she takes the job and tells herself it's research, not theft.
The bones now lie sealed in the hold of the SV Southern Crosswind, a historic tall ship running paying tourists across two thousand miles of open Pacific from Fiji to Vanuatu.
Three days out of port, something begins to move beneath the keel. Shadows circle in the bioluminescent dark. Hull-shuddering impacts echo through the timbers. The local crew whisper about sea spirits and start counting the nights.
Then the first body hits the water.
She salvaged the bones. Now the sea wants them back - and it will drown everyone aboard to collect.
The ocean always takes back what is hers.
