Dead Low Tide: A Novel

Dead Low Tide is an iconic early thriller from John D. MacDonald, the mastermind behind Cape Fear and the Travis McGee novels. On the coast of Florida, a working stiff is wrongfully accused of murdering his bossâ€”and must outwit one of MacDonaldâ€™s signature villains to save his life.

Introduction by Dean Koontz

A college graduate and amateur fisherman, Andy McClintock is stuck toiling in the office of a construction company. But when Andy tries to quit, his boss offers him a promotion and a raiseâ€”and then promptly kills himself with a harpoon gun. At least, thatâ€™s what it looks like, until the police rule it homicideâ€”with the murder weapon belonging to Andy.

The harpoon gun had been stolen out of Andyâ€™s garage, and the bossâ€™s wife makes the outrageous claim that she and Andy were having an affair. Heâ€™s been set up. To clear his name, heâ€™ll have to find the real killer. But Andy soon discovers that heâ€™s up against more than a two-bit thiefâ€”heâ€™s been targeted by absolute evil, a monster with no compassion for his fellow man.
