Set in a tiny Nova Scotia fishing village in October 1967, Sounding Line traces the ripple effects after an unidentified object plunges into the harbour. Officials converge, rumours spread, and the quiet routines of Perry’s Harbour are upended.

At the centre is Pocket Snow, whose family is already strained by illness and grief. As strangers arrive and authorities circle offshore, small acts of care and suspicion reshape relationships—at Crosbey’s store, around kitchen tables, and inside the Snow household.

The novel pairs atmospheric regional detail with intimate character work: it observes how a single event refracts through a community, bringing loss, curiosity and unexpected hope.
