Overview

Matt Sheehan enjoyed his life as the manager of a small coastal town ​in North Carolina. The former smooth-talking, calculated con man ​traded his life of scams and hustles for legitimate public service. But ​all that changed when a local resident and oyster farmer was found ​floating in waters on the sound side of this barrier island. At the same ​time, new legislation was proposed regarding dredging and beach ​nourishment. Millions of dollars are at stake and the impacts to the ​little island town could be devastating. Something doesn't feel right ​to Matt, but was it important enough to commit murder? To make ​matters even more complicated, Matt's former lover Aoife Kathleen ​Kenny, shows up after leaving him years before. The more Matt digs, the more confusing it gets. What he finds are two ​bungling idiots who think they are going to find Blackbeard's ​treasure, somehow connected to some very powerful political ​figures. As Matt and his gang follow the money, they find out just how ​deep the corruption goes. Now it's time for them to run their own con, ​and avoid ending up like the dead oyster farmer. Time is running out, and Matt has to stay focused, which is hard for ​him with Aoife around. Who will win when it all comes to a head? This rambunctious and lovable cast of characters find themselves in the middle of murder and governmental corruption in this beach thriller with a splash of romance.

""The Shellfish Grift is a rollicking story of murder, lost treasure, and suspense - just as it is a love story to the city of Wilmington, North Carolina. This is a novel for those who love the thrill of a good heist, and those who sense dark mystery in the Cape Fear River Basin and Atlantic tides."" - A.J.Gnuse, author of Girl in the Walls I thoroughly enjoyed this read. I was drawn in, enjoyed the character builds, and dynamics. As my husband would say, ""It's a ripping good yarn"". - Karen S.
