Praise for Treasure Coast

Numerous noteworthy elements fuel Foley’s narrative, including an impressively diverse cast

of secondary characters, including a politician with twisted sexual proclivities, a naïve marine

biologist, and a sleazy realtor. They effectively flesh out the multilayered mystery, and the

author also explores environmental issues, such as global warming and marine plastic pollution,

with subtlety and compassion. Infrequent moments of social commentary add brass-knuckle

impact... A strong start to what could be an entertaining series featuring a well-developed,

sympathetic cop protagonist. - Kirkus Reviews

When it comes to Lisa’s quest for justice, Foley is wisely planting the seeds for a series. While

a satisfying measure of closure is achieved, not everything is wrapped up in a neat bow, and

that’s something that will serve fans well over the long term. That doesn’t stop Foley, however,

from advancing Lisa’s love life. Readers who value multidimensional character development will

be quite pleased with Lisa’s arc. An engrossing, character-driven crime thriller that

thoughtfully explores grief, atonement, and post-loss romance alongside gritty police work.

Treasure Coast is everything you’d want in a thriller: action, intrigue, high stakes and even

some heart. James Foley has splashed onto the crime writing scene with a promising debut.

Bravo! - Matt Coyle, best-selling author of the award-winning Rick Cahill crime series

James Foley’s talent in penning twists, tension, and interleaving dark secrets, makes for a

brisk paced read that’s impossible to put down. Fans of David Baldacci’s bestselling Atlee Pine

series will love this one! Five stars! - Cam Torrens, author of the Tyler Zahn thriller series

Treasure Coast is a fast-paced crime thriller that is unpredictable, with a magnetic draw

that begs you to continue reading. The novel’s strength lies in Foley’s descriptive writing

style and his careful construction of the complex criminal enterprise that is intertwined

throughout the Stypman Island community. His character development is so thorough

that I found myself cringing as if for a friend in danger... Treasure Coast delivers a special type

of treasure cache: a jewel of a book and a promising new author. - Mystery Review Crew
