Why read it?
1 author picked Subject to the Tide as one of their favorite books. Why do they recommend it?
This book crosses multiple genre boundaries. While ticking all the boxes for a traditional mystery, Mahaffey blends in a healthy dose of romance, southern culture, and the paranormal to keep the reader guessing, not only whodunnit, but what is real and what is other-worldly.
Though tightly plotted, the author weaves it all together with lush prose and complex, likable (and very dislikable) characters.
From Gary's list on genre-busting indie mysteries.
