Annie Gagne

They left everything behind... but Three Fathom Bay has secrets of its own.When the Caldwell family relocates to the fog-shrouded town of Three Fathom Bay, they’re hoping for a fresh start.The salty air, quiet streets, and slower pace seem like the perfect antidote to a life that’s come undone. But beneath the stillness, something feels...off.Rick Caldwell is a man carrying secrets too heavy to share — secrets that quietly erode his family’s foundation. His wife, Maggie, is doing her best to stay strong, all while quietly unraveling under the weight of anxiety and all that remains unsaid. Their children know more than they’re told. And when a devastating hurricane slams into the coast, it doesn’t just tear through their new home — it unearths truths the Caldwells and the town have tried to keep buried.Then comes a disturbing warning from a local.Is it just the talk of a troubled mind? A case of small-town paranoia?Or is something far more dangerous lurking behind the town’s welcoming smiles?Told through shifting perspectives, Three Fathom Bay is a gripping, emotionally layered psychological drama about the ties that bind — and the secrets that break us. It’s a story of quiet resilience, buried pain, and what it means to start over when the past refuses to stay behind.For readers who enjoy:✓ Small-town psychological thrillers✓ Family secrets and emotional drama✓ Characters battling inner demons✓ Suspense with a slow, haunting burnAbout the AuthorAnnie Gagné is a French-Canadian creative spirit who recently discovered her voice as a writer.Deeply inspired by the emotional undercurrents of small-town life, Three Fathom Bay is her debut novel — a story that explores themes of family, secrets, and survival.While her writing may not be flawless, Annie chose not to wait for perfection to share what was in her heart and imagination.
