Bound by the Salt

Georgette vanished without explanation. The only clue was an envelope postmarked from a remote coastal village he has never heard her mention: Cairnshore. A place of shuttered windows, silent streets and a sea that moves without sound. Drawn by equal parts devotion and dread, he travels north to bring her home. But Cairnshore is a place that does not welcome strangers. Part folk horror, part psychological descent, Bound by the Salt is an unsettling meditation on love, memory and the terrible weight of belonging. Because in Cairnshore, by salt, they are bound.
