About the Book

In this beautiful, lyrical sequel to the critically acclaimed We Were the Salt of the Sea, Detective Moralè s finds that a seemingly straightforward search for a missing fisherwoman off Quebec's Gaspé Peninsula is anything but...

**WINNER of the Crime Writers of Canada Award for Best French Crime Book**

**SHORTLISTED for the CWA Crime in Translation Dagger**

**NUMBER ONE BESTSELLER**

'A riveting story of old enmities, jealousies and friendships that come to light after a woman goes missing in a remote fishing village beautifully atmospheric' Gill Paul

'A haunting murder mystery about how human nature is every bit as dangerous and inscrutable as the sea draws out its suspense to the very last moment' Foreword Reviews

_________________

It's not just the sea that holds secrets...

When an abandoned lobster trawler is found adrift off the coast of Quebec's Gaspé Peninsula, DS Joaquin Moralè s begins a straightforward search for the boat's missing captain, Angel Roberts a rare female in a male-dominated world. But Moralè s finds himself blocked at every turn by his police colleagues, by fisheries bureaucrats, and by his grown-up son, who has turned up at his door with a host of his own personal problems.

When Angel's body is finally discovered, it's clear something very sinister is afoot, and Moralè s and son are pulled into murky, dangerous waters, where old resentments run deep.

Exquisitely written, with Bouchard's trademark lyrical prose, The Coral Bride evokes the power of the sea on the communities who depend on it, the never-ending struggle between the generations, and an extraordinary mystery at the heart of both.

For fans of Ann Cleeves, Annie Proulx, Emma Stonex, Louise Penny and Jane Harper
