A hilarious page-turner from the bestselling author of Excavations, Salty takes us to a tropical marina where two estranged sisters reunite to work on a luxury yacht and take down the owner who destroyed their childhood home—and might have something to do with the dead body found next door. Captain Denise is more comfortable facing down a stingray than a party guest, though she’s punched both in recent memory. She’s been at the helm of these boats for half her life, back and forth across the Caribbean, and risen the ranks thanks to one never, ever mix with the owners. Her sister Helen is a walking HR violation, one of many reasons the two haven’t seen each other in years. Helen just got fired for the dozenth time for hooking up with a client and with every bridge burned, retreats home to work for Denise.  The clashing sisters are immediately thrown into the deep—their first charter is the Falcon family, shady real estate developers who mowed down Helen and Denise’s childhood home to build condos along the beautiful peninsula here. The Falcons treat everyone like pawns—from their future daughter-in-law, gullible Poppy, who has no idea what she’s marrying into, to the uptight yacht concierge, Geoff, who’s looking for love in very wrong places. When the latest Falcon building collapses—and a dead body turns up beside it—Helen and Denise comb through the boat, marina, and beyond to uncover just how low the Falcons will sink in order to stay afloat—before the big storm wipes out the evidence.

«Perché hai aperto una libreria in un paesino sconosciuto? Perché avevo bisogno di respirare, perché ero una bambina infelice, perché ero una bambina curiosa, per amore di mio padre, perché il mondo va a scatafascio, perché il lettore non va tradito, perché bisogna pensare ai piú piccoli, perché mi sono salvata». Non è mai troppo tardi per realizzare un sogno. Nel dicembre 2019, Alba Donati decide di cambiare vita e aprire una libreria a Lucignana, poche case sull’Appennino lucchese. Lo fa grazie a un crowdfunding e al passaparola sui social. Da subito la libreria, una sorta di «cottage letterario» immerso nel verde, diventa un luogo di pellegrinaggio, di parole in comune, di incontri speciali. In questo diario che abbraccia sei mesi di vita della libreria – l’incendio che la distrugge dopo un mese dall’apertura, l’energia delle persone che la rimettono in piedi, la chiusura durante il lockdown, fino all’organizzazione di un festival letterario – c’è il racconto di una passione che è leva per sollevare il mondo. Con leggerezza e intelligenza, Alba Donati regala al lettore un’esperienza perfettamente in linea con la missione della sua libreria: mettere in pausa la frenesia delle nostre giornate, lasciarsi cullare dal conforto di piccoli gesti di cura, seguire il filo che unisce libro a libro, sentirsi parte di una comunità. Fare la libraia oggi significa anche ingegnarsi per far tornare i conti, leggere di notte, pensare lo spazio come un rifugio e un presidio culturale, raccogliere gli ordini a fine giornata come sassolini che indicano la strada. E in questa vita da libraia felice e resistente, nel suo senso di «casa», nelle sue scelte controcorrente, nella storia della sua famiglia di irriducibili, c’è tutta la caparbietà di cui sono capaci le donne, e insieme l’amore per le storie, quello di chi vuole farle conoscere e circolare. Questo è il libro che sognano tutti i lettori: le pagine che leggiamo si mescolano a ciò che ci accade come in un grande diorama aperto, perché le parole dei libri sono parte del nostro alfabeto.
