The Hidden Tide - Paperback

by Birnam Fox (Author)

On the cusp of the new millennium, Atlantic City is sliding backward. The once-booming seaside escape is now mired in a death spiral of crime, addiction, and failing industry - and it's the last place in the world seventeen-year-old Monica Dunne wants to be. When she is forced to return to the place that haunts her for her senior year, all she can think about is getting through the next nine months and getting out. But when Monica, while on a class trip, discovers a dead woman by the bay, she is unwittingly drawn into a web of deceit, neglect, and violence. Monica sets out to discover what happened to her Jane Doe, but with every new lead, she sinks deeper into the underbelly of the city she hoped to leave behind. If she is to uncover the truth, Monica will have to stop fleeing from the past and face the darkness head-on when life - and death - are on the line. The Hidden Tide, by Birnam Fox, is a thrilling crime drama that will take readers into the shadows of Atlantic City, chasing a mystery that grows more dangerous with every page.
