Undertow

By K. T. Konkoly

From the author of Adrift comes a taut, emotionally charged legal thriller about confronting old enemies, unleashing hidden dangers, and fighting against the pull of small-town secrets.

Attorney Kari Sharpe knew it wouldn't be easy, leaving her life in New York and returning home to Portland, Maine. But she never imagined it would mean defending her former bully--even if only in court.

Stacy and Greg Stadt made Kari's childhood miserable. So, when Greg dies in a boating accident and Stacy is charged with his murder, she's reluctant to take the case. But as Kari faces the demons of her past, she is confronted by more than she bargained for. Greg had been the last obstacle to a contentious casino plan, proposed by a shady consortium wielding power from the shadows.

When another town board member goes missing, Kari realizes the players in this conspiracy may not be what they seem. Meanwhile, she reconnects with her first real love--possibly the last person she should trust. If she can free her former tormentor, she might free herself from old fears. But strong currents of hidden influence keep threatening to pull her under.
