The Coral Bride is a crime novel by Roxanne Bouchard, shortlisted for the Crime Writers of Canada: Best French Crime Novel and the CWA International Dagger. It is a haunting murder mystery about how human nature is as dangerous and inscrutable as the sea, set in a remote fishing village on Quebec's Gaspé Peninsula.

Publisher: Orenda Books
In this captivating and poetic sequel to the highly acclaimed We Were the Salt of the Sea, Detective Moralès embarks on a seemingly straightforward mission to locate a missing fisherwoman on Quebec's Gaspé Peninsula. However, as he delves deeper into the investigation, he discovers that the case is far more intricate and complex than initially anticipated.
The story unfolds against the backdrop of a picturesque fishing village, where old enmities, jealousies, and friendships emerge to the surface. As Moralès and his son, Joaquin, delve into the mystery, they are met with resistance from their police colleagues, fisheries bureaucrats, and even their own grown-up son, who brings with him a host of personal problems.
When Angel's body is finally discovered, it becomes evident that something sinister is afoot. Moralès and Joaquin are drawn into murky, dangerous waters, where old resentments run deep. The Coral Bride is a masterful exploration of the power of the sea on the communities that depend on it, the intergenerational struggles, and an extraordinary mystery that lies at the heart of both.
Written with Bouchard's trademark lyrical prose, the novel evokes a sense of awe and wonder as it delves into the intricacies of human nature and the complexities of relationships. It is a police procedural like no other, marveling at the clever plotting and the depth of character development.
For fans of Ann Cleeves, Annie Proulx, Emma Stone, Louise Penny, and Jane Harper, The Coral Bride is a must-read that will leave you eagerly anticipating the next installment in this captivating series.
