The Tide Between Us
The premise
Graywater is a fog-drowned ferry port with federal trucks massing on the pier road and a grief retreat glowing on the ridge. Three nights ago a man left Mara Voss dying on the rocks below the seawall. This morning she woke healed, with gaps where the night should be and a note in her jacket written in almost her own hand. It says it will explain. The king tide arrives in six nights.

How it opens
Cold water moves your hand, and that is what wakes you — gray light, gravel under your cheek, the tide sliding out through the pilings. You are lying in the shallows below the Anchor Street seawall, and you remember dying here.
The regular from the terminal — Fisk — his face. The rocks. More blood than a body holds.
The blood is still on the stones above the tide line, black where it dried. But when you pull your shirt from your ribs there is nothing underneath — no wound, no scar, just clean new skin that aches like something healed years ago. …
The story picks up from here — start a save and it answers to you.
