"A SILENT TIDE" WINS THE 2014 NATIONAL INDIE EXCELLENCE AWARD FOR
BEST LEGAL THRILLER Beginning with the brutal 1927 ambush of
Chesapeake Bay rumrunners at a fog shrouded cove on Maryland's
eastern shore and culminating with a final showdown eighty years
later when truth meets justice at Harpers Creek Marina in Mathews,
Virginia, "A Silent Tide" brings to life the 2007 story of a bay
side community racially rocked by the murder of favorite son,
all-state athlete Jimmy Jarvis, and the trial of Jamal Billups, the
African American man charged with the crime. One-half Michener's
"Chesapeake" and one-half "To Kill a Mockingbird," "A Silent Tide"
follows the path of attorney David Forbes who, with his wife and
two children, moves to this small southern community to escape his
hectic world as a Federal Prosecutor in Washington D.C. What Forbes
wanted was the quiet world of a country lawyer and to raise his
family in the land of steamed blue crab, salt water marsh, nesting
ospreys and the great tranquility of the Chesapeake Bay. What he
got was an idyllic life sent into a tailspin when he gets appointed
to represent Billups and commits the unforgivable sin of believing
his client is an innocent man. From the decks of deadrise fishing
boats and the boardrooms of Washington law firms, to the drug
warehouses of East Baltimore and a Los Zeta heroin distribution
center in Sinaloa, Mexico, "A Silent Tide" propels the reader on a
page turning ride as Forbes weaves his way through a world of drug
smuggling, corruption and murder, dangerously searching for the
truth until he is faced with either pleading an innocent man guilty
or having his own family killed if he continues his pursuit of the
true murderer of Jimmy Jarvis. Undaunted in his task, and
befriended by the irascible 89 year old waterman, Walter Taylor,
Forbes perseveres until attorney and killer come face to face in an
unforgettable pre-dawn dual on a storm tossed sea.
