See You was Dawn Lee McKenna’s first published novel, released in 2014 before she found her stride with The Forgotten Coast. It predates the Apalachicola setting and characters that would make her name in the mystery genre, but shows the storytelling instincts that she would refine in her later work.
McKenna launched The Forgotten Coast series in 2015 with Lowcountry Boil, and that series became a bestseller. See You is a very different book from what followed, without the Florida Gulf Coast atmosphere or the recurring cast that readers came to love. Still, it gives fans a look at McKenna’s writing before she found the formula that clicked.
The novel is self-published and remains available, though it does not get nearly as much attention as the Forgotten Coast books. Readers who discover McKenna through her later work sometimes circle back to See You out of curiosity.
