Synopsis

Hi. Nick Caden. Teen reporter, amateur detective, and the older brother who was absolutely, one hundred percent supposed to be watching his sister.

I wasn't.

In my defense, nobody expects a fifteen-year-old corpse to float up out of a Georgia swamp and drag your sister away in a canoe. That is not a thing you plan for. It's Halloween night in Savannah. There's a Zombie Crawl. Heidi May Laveau — dead for fifteen years, last seen falling off a riverboat — has opinions about that. Specifically, she has opinions about Wendy.

Wendy has laryngitis. Her screams came out as a wheeze. I heard her go. I couldn't help her. That part isn't funny.

The rest of it — the voodoo woman, the real estate scam, the homeschooled marina girl named Kat who kept showing up and pretending she wasn't following me — gets complicated fast.

Here's what nobody tells you about having a sister: you spend roughly eighty percent of your time annoyed at her. She's loud. She's dramatic. She catches colds at the worst possible moments and then breathes on you. And then someone takes her, and you realize the other twenty percent of your time was the best twenty percent of your life.

Your kid is going to read this book and look across the room at their sibling — the one they've been arguing with all week — and feel something they won't quite have words for. That's me telling Wendy I'm sorry I ignore you, shut you out, wish you'd go away. I don't. And I won't — as much — from now on.

Dead Low Tide. Book 3 in the Caden Chronicles. Spooky but not scary. Funny but not foolish. Satisfying in all the right ways.
