Cape Cod

When marine biologist Claire Whitfield returns to her family's weathered cottage on Cape Cod after her grandmother's death, she discovers a bundle of letters hidden beneath the floorboards—letters revealing a forbidden love affair from the 1940s. As she unravels the mystery against a backdrop of windswept dunes, salt marshes, and crumbling lighthouses, Claire confronts her own shattered marriage and the choices that brought her back. Spanning three generations of women bound by the sea, this haunting novel is a meditation on love, loss, and the tides of memory that never truly recede.
