A sealed box, a missing eighty-one-year-old, and a nor'easter with no interest in due process. Saltwick, Maine has kept its secrets for forty years, but contract archivist Winifred Ashby has always been faster than whoever is trying to stop her.

Winifred arrived with archival gloves, a six-week digitizing contract, and her tabby cat Ptolemy, who has strong opinions about which documents deserve closer attention. She expected mildew and microfilm. She found a 1987 coroner's report stamped UNFILED, four photographs of a body at Cannery Cove, and a verdict of hiking accident that did not survive contact with the words blunt-force trauma.

Beckett Vale has run the Saltwick Inn long enough that the town treats him like a structural wall. He wants the box resealed and Winifred gone. He gets her at his counter with a manila folder and news that Dorothea Crane, the board chair who hired Winifred, has vanished alongside the original evidence.

Suspect one reported the 1987 death himself. Suspect two has his family name on every civic plaque from here to the harbor.

The nor'easter closes the cove road in forty-eight hours. When that window shuts, it shuts for good.
