As a hurricane gathers its power just off Apalachicola’s shore, another storm comes to a head in Lt. Maggie Redmond's home.Held prisoner by a man bent on avenging the death of a son, Maggie must find a way to save herself and her two children.No one knows where they are. No one is coming to help. Maggie and her children will have to find a way to survive both the madness inside their home and the madness raging outside.Two storms that nobody thought were coming just made landfall.About the Forgotten Coast SeriesThe first four books of the series, Low Tide, Riptide, What Washes Up, and Landfall, set the stage for the rest of the series. While there are subplots resolved in each book, there is an overarching storyline that is not resolved until Landfall, so readers will enjoy them best if these are read in order. Subsequent books in the series are both longer (ranging between 200-250 pages) and designed to stand alone, so they may be read in any order.Praise for the Forgotten Coast Florida Suspense SeriesFrom Low Tide:Florida writers need to watch out, or better still read Dawn McKenna's books. She's the real deal......Low Tide is a suspenseful mystery/thriller, beautifully written and perfectly executed. The characters ring true, the scenarios are all plausible, and the dialogue is witty and believable. Dawn Lee McKenna is an amazing and gifted writer.....McKenna is the real deal - a storyteller with a knack for hooking you with characters of depth and intriguing sub plots.From Riptide:Even better than Low Tide, this novel had so much depth and heart, mixed seamlessly with the heart-stopping suspense scenes. I'm absolutely hooked on this series......After finishing Low Tide, the very promising entry to the Forgotten Coast series, I was curious to see how Dawn Lee McKenna would follow up. Not only does McKenna not disappoint, she exceeds already high expectations with this exciting, well-written sequel.......Riptide fulfills the promise of its predecessor, Low Tide, and firmly establishes this author as a force to be reckoned with in the literary world and the mystery/suspense genre.

I was initially disappointed, thinking this was more action, less character interaction, with Faye being the one making landfall. None too soon did I realize this book, like the others, was chock full of McKenna's richly developed characters and in this book, one particularly interesting twist...again, to be developed in the next book.These novellas, end rather abruptly (one actually left hanging) and it is this abruptness that could frustrate some readers away.Having the series available via Kindle Unlimited makes the decision to 'read on' a no brainer...but before I even finished Landfall, I bought them all for re-reading.Also added 'See You' to my collection, a love story like no other I've ever read. She's genius when making her characters come to life.
What can I say? Dawn Lee McKenna just keeps getting better. The consistency of writing is nothing short of God-given. I absolutely love the witty, dry humour, bite-your-nails tense moments, and the unexpected twists and turns never end. I can't get enough of Stoopid..and "pet serial killer" Coco, the dry as chip Miss Evangeline and of course, Mr. Boudreaux...what a surprise!Unfortunately, the adventure ended too soon, and November is so far away...I guess I'll just have to rely on not-as-good novels to keep me going until then...aaah bwoy!
I bought this book in advance, in order to support this fantastic author and this wonderful and addictive series. However, the preview in the previous book the series, and the beginning of this book made me think that nastiness beyond my tolerance level would happen to characters about whom I have grown to care deeply, and quite honestly, to love. I was incredibly rewarded for my perseverance by the remainder of this engaging, suspenseful and thrilling story. Being a native of the Gulf Coast of Florida, with a hobby farm just east of Orlando, and who lived through three hurricanes that went over my house, barn and farm in 2004, I can attest to the realism of this hurricane tale. My best summation is simply BUY AND READ THIS BOOK (and author). You will NOT be disappointed.My only "complaint" about this series is, while each book can stand alone and has a sufficiently complete conclusion (no cheap cliff-hangers), I want so much for the book to continue, and must now impatiently wait for the next book in the Forgotten Coast series. I only wish that I had the people (not merely characters) in my neighborhood and circle of friends.Thank you so very much, Dawn! Keep up the phenomenal work! (But please write faster :-)
I read this entire. Book in one afternoon! I couldn't put it down. It's NOT A SPOILER, as it states in the description that the story opens with a hurricane bearing down on Appalachicola....and believe me, that is the beginning of the turbulent excitement in this great book! ' Ms. McKenna knows how to write! The story grips you on page one, and you feel like you are truly there throughout the entire adventure to the last page. This is book four of a six book series...I recommend reading them in order to enjoy them fully. I'm going to start book five and can tell you they are all an ABSOLUTE must read. Well done, Ms. McKenna! Well done, indeed.
I really like this series. The characters are interesting without bogging down the fast moving and intriguing plot. I often get impatient when a whodunit writer gets into the romantic life of their protagonist but McKenna handles the emotional lives of her characters interestingly. The various threads have become integral to the stories and add richness. I grew up on the Gulf Coast, although south of this setting, and really like her use of the wildness of the Gulf, the land, and the people who work it. Thanks for a great series. Will read them all!
Dawn McKennas easy style of writing makes reading her series of the Florida waterways easy to read and stay involved with the characters. I bought my third book recently and read it in one nightime setting! Enjoy her characters and how she keeps you guessing on what is going to happen next. Im anxiously awaiting her next series.
The Maggie Redmond books are among some of the finest South Florida mysteries out there. I actually read Landfall and What washes up back to back.. The way these books are written is like watching television during a marathon of your favorite show. Start with the first book and read all four in a row, binge -reading if you will, and I promise you won't be disappointed. I can't wait until the next one comes out!
Another in a great series. I can't stress enough my recommendation of starting with the first, Low Tide, and reading through them all. This one has lots of action - I mean lots of action. The plot has many twists and turns and the author leaves a trail of discovery for the discerning reader to follow. Some of the original character motivations come to light. Also, the interaction between the characters is truly believable. "All the sharks aren't downtown," and other statements left me laughing.
