The Books

Every family has secrets. Ours was buried in salt, stone, and silence.

After moving into an old New England home, a young couple begins to experience things they can't explain—recurring dreams, an unease that lingers in the walls, and the sense that the sea is closer than it should be. Generations of silence point to a truth no one in the family ever spoke aloud.

That truth arrives in the form of a dark stranger who reveals a forgotten ancestor: a whaling captain bound to the winter solstice, cursed to survive at the cost of everyone he ever loved.

Spanning centuries, Captain Burt: Against the Solstice Tide is a haunting tale of legacy, sacrifice, and the terrible price of endurance—where immortality is not a gift, but a reckoning, and love may be the only force strong enough to end it.
