Summary

When disaster strikes the Circus Salmagundi on their way to Nanaimo, Miss Rose Ivy finds herself stuck on a listless ship with a most unlikely crew. They must wait for help to arrive, but they’re safely moored by an uninhabited island. What could go wrong?

Then a strange, half-starved stowaway climbs aboard, raving that his missing wife has been kidnapped by a cult of fanatics. He insists: they need to flee!

But the engines are dead and there’s no way to escape. Rose needs to use her cunning to buy time, but where has the missing woman gone? Is she a prisoner? Is she hiding on the island, desperate to be rescued?

Or does she even exist at all?

Using the lens of mysticism and early twentieth-century philosophies, The Sea Will Have journeys through a world divided. People desperate for stability after the Great War are willing to follow charming charlatans, but a bright sun casts dark shadows, and paradise may not be as perfect as it seems. As Rose learned long ago, a handsome smile can hide a cruel heart.

The Sea Will Have is the third book in the Circus Salmagundi Mysteries.
