South Jersey native and heart surgeon-turned-novelist Daniel J. Waters has released Barnegat Dark, his third installment of the Jersey Shore/Mickey Cleary series with Bandageman Press.
Set in 1971, the new novel takes place on Long Beach Island over a sweltering Fourth of July weekend. The familiar characters from the author’s previous books return, along with new faces and storylines.
The first novel takes place in 1967, the second in 1969. Waters’ debut novel, Surf City Confidential, was published in 2018 and garnered a five-star rating on Amazon.
