Can$12.95

I knew that if I dived deep enough, the bullets would lose their killing velocity. I heard, or sensed, another explosive blast. My left arm was useless. I kept diving, down and out into deeper, blacker water …

Coast Salish investigator Silas Seaweed is back in another suspenseful page-turner. What begins as a missing-person investigation takes a nasty turn when party girl Jane Colby is found drowned, strangulation marks around her neck. Silas soon discovers that some of Jane's friends would benefit by her death. Tackling the case with his usual intelligence, wit and compassion, he sets out to find Jane's killer. His search leads him to a dangerous family with disturbing secrets.

Solving the case pulls him into Salish mythology and ritual, culminating in a terrifying underwater vision quest-one from which he may never return.

This is Stanley Evans' third book in his Silas Seaweed crime-fiction series, following Seaweed on the Street (2005) and Seaweed on Ice (2006). His previous novels are Outlaw Gold and Snow-Coming Moon, and he also wrote two plays that were produced at the Arts Club Theatre in Vancouver. He lives in Victoria, B.C.
