The Quiet Between Tides - Hardcover

by Krista L. Wehr (Author)

In Black Harbor, Maine, the past has a way of refusing to stay buried.

Nineteen years ago, Grace Bennett disappeared during a violent storm near Widow's Bluff, leaving behind unanswered questions and a town that never truly moved on. Now Dr. Emma Carter arrives in Black Harbor hoping for a quieter life, only to find herself living in a house connected to one of the town's deepest wounds.

As Emma begins piecing together Grace's story through journals, photographs, letters, artwork, and the memories of those who knew her, small details start to feel impossible to ignore.

Grace was more than a beloved art teacher. She understood people who struggled to find the words for their pain, and her influence still reaches far beyond her disappearance.

Then Grace's son, Noah, begins sharing drawings that seem to reveal what the adults around him have chosen not to see.

Set against a haunting Maine coastline, small town mystery meets emotional suspense as Emma follows clues surrounding Grace's disappearance. The story blends a coastal mystery novel atmosphere with the unsettling questions of a lighthouse mystery, while Emma's professional understanding of people adds a psychological mystery dimension to the search for answers.

As the investigation deepens, Emma discovers that some secrets are protected by silence, while others survive because someone refuses to stop looking. With its missing person's thriller tension, layered characters, and atmospheric mystery setting, The Quiet Between Tides offers a compelling journey into grief, memory, hope, and the secrets a community carries.

A haunting and emotional Maine mystery novel for readers drawn to suspense, human connection, and mysteries that refuse to stay forgotten.
