About this item
by Bobby Bryan Goodwin (Author)
King Tide is a literary coastal novel set against the stark beauty of North Carolina's Outer Banks.
When three lifelong friends-and a dog named Scout-travel to Ocracoke and Portsmouth Island for a late-season escape, they expect solitude, salt air, and a few quiet days on the water. Instead, they find a place shaped by history, weather, and memory.
As a King Tide and nor'easter collide, old bonds fray and unspoken tensions surface. Separated by the storm, survival becomes more than a fight against the sea. It becomes a reckoning-with loyalty, with grief, and with the obligations that endure long after the living believe they have moved on.
Rooted in real geography and inspired by true events, King Tide explores friendship under pressure, love tested by nature, and the way certain places hold the past just beneath the surface. Both intimate and expansive, it is a story of endurance-of bodies, of bonds, and of memory-and of the thin veil between what is seen and what is carried forward.
