Flood Tide

Dunja, having finally gotten a little acclaim and money from her writing career, decides it's time to return home to the Adriatic coast and solve the mystery of her brother's death that set in motion the suicide of her father. Flood Tide is a sweeping exploration of the violence born from human ambivalences, limitations and decisions. It is as elegantly plotted and psychologically deft as a Ross Macdonald mystery, and has the idiosyncratic virtuosity of Fernanda Melchor's Hurricane Season.
