A Fickle Tide (Revised Edition)
Pyke Island Mystery Series Book 1
On the rugged coast of Maine, Pyke Island harbors more than just the echoes of the past?it conceals a mystery as relentless as the tide. When a woman wakes up alone in a freezing cottage, bloodied and disoriented, she must retrace the terrifying path that led to her abduction.
As suspicion spreads and whispers of a smuggling ring circulate through the island's quiet community, long-buried secrets begin to surface, connecting her kidnapping to a missing Hollywood producer and a web of deceit hidden in plain sight.
In A Fickle Tide, the serene beauty of Downeast Maine turns treacherous, drawing readers into a slow-burn, character-driven mystery filled with small-town secrets, environmental intrigue, and the haunting power of memory.
Perfect for fans of suspense novels with female protagonists, coastal thrillers, and mystery books with strong family dynamics, this atmospheric page-turner launches the Pyke Island Mystery Series with gripping intensity.
