Publisher's summary

As Montrealer Catherine Day sets foot in a remote fishing village and starts asking around about her birth mother, the body of a woman dredges up in a fisherman's nets. Not just any woman, though: Marie Garant, an elusive, nomadic sailor and unbridled beauty who once tied many a man's heart in knots.

Detective Sergeant Joaquin Morales, newly drafted to the area from the suburbs of Montreal, barely has time to unpack his suitcase before he's thrown into the deep end of the investigation. On Quebec's outlying Gaspe Peninsula, the truth can be slippery, especially down on the fishermen's wharves.

Narration too Inconsistent

I think I might have loved the story if I had heard it all. Unless I wanted to be blasted out of the room when some characters were speaking, I could not hear the soft spoken words, in fact I missed at least half of the whispered narration.
A shame too because what I could understand was interesting and I love the sea.

The narration was so bad!

The narration was so bad, loud at times, jump around and so inconsistent that I couldn't even understand what the story was about. I gave up after an hour. Waist of a credit.
