Some towns bury their dead quietly. Duncarrow has never managed that.
When Mara Gillan returns to the bleak Scottish coastal town she once fought to escape, she arrives with nothing but failure, grief, and the uneasy shelter of her aunt's funeral home. The work is meant to be temporary. Quiet. Practical.
Then the bodies begin to arrive.
There is salt beneath their fingernails.
There is black water in their lungs.
There are signs on the dead that no doctor can explain and no one in town is willing to name.
As Mara steps deeper into the business of preparing the dead, she uncovers a long, buried history between Duncarrow, the sea, and the families who have lived beside it for generations. The town has learned to survive by keeping its silence. Her aunt has spent decades recording what others refuse to see. And the sea, patient as ever, has begun to return for what it was once promised.
Salt for the Dying is a dark, atmospheric novel of grief, inheritance, and female endurance, steeped in salt air, funeral ritual, and old coastal dread. Perfect for readers who love gothic fiction, literary horror, slow burn suspense, haunted towns, and beautiful darkness that lingers long after the last page.
