Charlie Salter (Book 5)
A Body Surrounded by Water
by Eric Wright
While vacationing with his family on Prince Edward Island, Toronto Detective Inspector Charlie Salter finds himself assisting local police in a murder investigation. The case centers on the Great Seal of Prince Edward Island—a historical artifact stolen by American raiders during the Revolutionary War—which has mysteriously resurfaced in the 1980s. When an antique dealer attempts to sell the long-lost seal back to the province, his local contact is found murdered, pulling Salter into a complex web of history and crime.
