"Matthew Fitzpatrick's Demon Tide is a bite-your-nails-down-to-the-cuticles crime drama that's gritty, witty, and chock full of surprises. Fitzpatrick is quickly elevating himself as the rightful heir to the Boston gangster throne once held by George V. Higgins and Dennis Lehane." --Casey Sherman, New York Times, USA Today and Wall Street Journal Bestselling Author of James Patterson's Last Days of John Lennon and Hunting Whitey * * * This is a community that has lost its innocence. A quaint New England town that meets the growing opioid epidemic head-on. The town's casualties build up as local law enforcement, as well as out-of-towners in the form of Justin McGee and his "family," realize that it's a crime that stems within the community's own.

It's been one year since hot-shot attorney Justin McGee, Boston's most deadly and elusive assassin-for-hire, took on the highest stakes assignment of his career. Killing an assistant district attorney is broad daylight is risky enough, but this assignment carried an especially risky wildcard. Justin finds himself on the lam living in hiding on a fishing yacht in Jekyll Island, Georgia. There he dwells among his dock-mates who consist of drug dealers, smugglers, prostitutes and even an illegal undertaker. The rug is pulled out from under his entire world when the woman that he believed he loved and subsequently murdered for money, shows up alive in order to exact a unique type of revenge. In an unorthodox way, the two lovers recommence their torrid affair and engage in a risky, yet lucrative counterfeiting trade operation. Suddenly, the arrival of an eleven year-old ragamuffin with holes in her clothes and blood on her hands, only further complicates matters. Each of the players at the table eventually find themselves caught in the crossfire of a terrorist plot the likes of which the world has only envisioned in its worst nightmares...
