Watch out for that jellyfish! Winner of the 2017 McGrath House Indie Book Award for Humor, Ripped Tide, the first book in the Oak Island Series, is a laugh-out-loud mystery that shines a light on a very serious issue. Following the heartbreaking loss of his fiancée to a medical error, hospital pharmacist Daniel O'Dwyer flees to Oak Island, North Carolina. His recovery plan is simple: fresh sea air, fresh seafood, cold Fat Tire Amber Ale, and a total ban on anything resembling a healthcare institution. But fate-and a poorly timed jellyfish sting-have other ideas. Reluctantly pulled back into the medical world, Daniel is pressured into going undercover at nearby Boiling Grove Community Hospital to stop a dangerous narcotic drug diversion ring. With next to no help from Willie, his socially unpredictable sidekick, Daniel must navigate a minefield of dangerous situations and bizarre locals. From a brawny redneck sporting a Bob Marley tattoo to a bat-like foreign physician and a lackluster HR Director obsessed with Mai Tais, Daniel is in way over his head. Perfect for fans of Carl Hiaasen, Tim Dorsey and Christopher Moore. A dash of mystery, a little romance, a splash of cozy, and a whole lot of zany. Praise for the Oak Island series:
Carney's books remind me of Jimmy Buffett songs. They're filled with quirky characters, inane circumstances, and lots of good hearts. -Lisa Shiroff, author of Show Up Dead.
Lance Carney has a great, deliciously warped sense of humor! There is a lot of Hiaasen in him. -Don Rich, author of the Coastal Adventure series.
