Overview

A bribery case gone wrong leads a woman into the deep, dank Carolina Lowcountry on a manhunt. Carolina Slade, a by-the-book federal county manager in the coastal Lowcountry of South Carolina, reports an attempted bribe only to find herself a key player in a sting operation run by Senior Special Agent Wayne Largo from the Inspector General's Office in Atlanta. However, the IG isn't telling Slade everything about this case or the disappearance-presumed-murder of Slade's boss the year before. When the sting blows up, both cases are put on hold and Wayne is yanked back to Atlanta, leaving Slade to fear not only for her life and job, but for her children's safety. Suddenly, operating by the book is no longer an option.

""Terrific. Smart, knowing, clever . . . and completely original. A taut, high-tension page-turner--in a unique and fascinating setting. An absolute winner!"" --Hank Phillippi Ryan, Agatha, Anthony and Macavity winning author In C. Hope Clark's novel, Tidewater Murder, Carolina Slade establishes herself as a new genre superstar, taking her place beside Dave Robicheux and Harry Bosch. Well-written and informative about a little-known arm of law enforcement, Clark has written a story that carries the reader along as surely as the tides of the lowcountry. -Carl T. Smith, author of A Season for Killing and Lowcountry Boil
