One Salt Sea

In the acclaimed world of October Daye, where modern San Francisco coexists with the hidden realms of Faerie, changeling detective Toby Daye finally finds a semblance of peace – a state that, as she knows all too well, is fleeting. Her fragile tranquility is shattered when the sons of Duchess Dianda Lorden, regent of the formidable Undersea Duchy of Saltmist, are kidnapped. This abduction threatens to ignite a devastating war between the land-dwelling fae and the powerful sea folk, a conflict Toby is desperate to prevent. Tasked with not only locating the missing boys but also proving the innocence of the Queen of the Mists, Toby must navigate treacherous political waters and dangerous magical currents. Her investigation plunges her from the familiar streets of San Francisco into the perilous, alien world beneath the waves, where ancient rivalries and deadly secrets lurk. As a mysterious adversary works to obstruct her every move, playing by no known laws, Toby realizes this is more than just a case; it's deeply personal. In a realm where war means devastation, Toby must risk everything, knowing that not everyone will survive when Faerie's fragile peace shatters.
