Red Tide finds Billy Knight still trying to drift through life in Key West with as little trouble as possible, but that hope disappears the moment he comes across a dead body in the gulf. What begins as an ugly discovery quickly pulls him into something much darker, involving people the authorities would rather ignore and dangers that reach well beyond one isolated death. The novel has that same sun-bleached, hard-boiled feel as the first book, but this time the menace seems heavier and stranger, with the laid-back coastal setting masking something genuinely sinister underneath. More than a straightforward thriller, it feels like a story about a man who keeps trying to step away from trouble only to find that his instincts—and his conscience—will not let him stay out of it.
