In this beautiful, lyrical sequel to the critically acclaimed We Were the Salt of the Sea, Detective Morals finds that a seemingly straightforward search for a missing fisherwoman off Quebec's Gasp Peninsula is anything but. When an abandoned lobster trawler is found adrift off the coast of Quebec's Gasp Peninsula, DS Joaquin Morals begins a straightforward search for the boat's missing captain, Angel Roberts - a rare female in a male-dominated world. But Morals 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 Morals and son are pulled into murky, dangerous waters, where old resentments run deep.
