Deadly Tide

When her father is arrested for murder, Samantha Bretton takes over as skipper of his fishing trawler, the Sea Mistress, determined to clear his name. Brisbane cop Chayse Jarrett, guilt-ridden by the death of a young woman on his last assignment, goes undercover on the vessel, and soon realises that Samantha is hiding something.

Secrets that could implicate her father in more than murder.

Secrets that Chayse becomes reluctant to uncover.

As Chayse and Samantha fight their attraction to each other, the case takes a sinister twist and she is forced to relive the horrors of her past. Then, in a night as deadly and unpredictable as the ocean that threatens his life, Chayse finds new allies, but now faces danger from old and bitter foes.

Before that night has ended, even enemies will discover that things are not always as they seem ...

Readers' Comments...

"After reading Black Ice I was very excited about this book and she didn't disappoint me. Sandy has a way of writing that the words envelop you and you read it more like watching a movie than reading a book."

Wendy, Queensland, 2003.

"I put you down at 12:30 last night... or rather, your latest book "Deadly Tide".....after a very busy week and just wanted to thank you for three perfect nights of recreational reading, and high value entertainment."

Bruce Sidebottom, Victoria, March 2003.
