Dead Tide — A.J. Scudiere

When a former mermaid turns up dead, Eleri and Donovan are stuck with a case they never wanted, but can't shake…

Eleri should have been recused. That's her friend on the autopsy table. But her Special Agent in Charge won't let her off the case, making her wonder if there's more to Westerfield's demands than meets the eye.

He won't let Donovan out of the case either. The Lobomau are more organized and further-reaching than anyone thought, and Donovan now has a personal connection in the form of the man calling him “brother.”

The team is stuck on a research vessel with a killer hot on their trail… but Eleri's skills are glitchy at best, and Donovan is terrified of the water. Can they keep the remaining crew members -- and themselves -- alive or betrayal come from where they least expect it?

This next installment in the NightShade Forensic Files brings more X-Files-like mystery to the series! Be prepared for an up-all-night thrill ride and grab Dead Tide now.
