The Quiet Between Tides
A story waiting for its moment to surface.
Elena Vale
A collection of unsent letters draws three generations back to the shore. The next chapter of Rowan Bay is on its way.
THE STORY
Step into the story.
Every September, someone leaves a letter in the old tide gauge. This year, the letters arrive early. They are addressed to people who no longer live in Rowan Bay — including one person who insists she has never been there.
The third Rowan Bay novel follows a daughter, a father and a retired postmaster as they trace the journey of a message that has taken forty years to arrive.
