Dead Low Tide is historic fiction and the second in the Crowley mystery series. The story follows James Crowley, Provincetown Police Chief in 1938. When a body washes up on a beach in the east end of town, the chief receives help from patrolman Lewis, his friend Dr. Rice, the Boston Police Detective Shiff, and an undercover cop named Harry Enos. World War II is looming in the distance and unrest is building across America. The murder leads to a militant group of Nazi sympathizers who plan to import munitions using a local fishing boat. Chief Crowley finds a love interest and discovers that sometimes justice meeds to be balanced with mercy.
I will be discussing the book with Tina Lynde on her WOMR radio show, Memory Lane this coming Saturday November 17, 2018 at 9 AM.
Dead Low Tide is available at ArchwayPublishing as well as Kindle, Ibooks and Amazon. I hope you enjoy the read.
