Secrets sealed in a vanished detective’s papers resurface in Astoria, drawing Hayden back into the storm he thought he’d survived.
The sea never forgets—and neither does the past.
When retired detective Frank Thompson opens the envelope given him by the elusive Lookingglass, he uncovers a secret that should have remained buried in the tides of Astoria. What begins as a quiet search for truth draws him—and those once touched by Hayden Lansford’s story—into a labyrinth of lost papers, coastal legends, and the haunting pull of unfinished business. The Lookingglass Papers is a gripping sequel to Tide Stalker, a mystery of memory, redemption, and the secrets the sea refuses to drown.
