''Riptide'' is an 1998 adventure novel by [[Agent Pendergast (Literature)|Douglas Preston and Lincoln Child]] inspired by the real-life Oak Island Money Pit; a possible buried treasure horde off the coast of Nova Scotia that has resisted two hundred years of excavation attempts through lethally dangerous floods and cave-ins.
 
Set off the coast of Stormhaven, Maine and targeting the fictional Ragged Island Water Pit, the novel focuses on Dr. Malin Hatch, whose family has owned the seemingly worthless island for several generations after his grandfather became the latest in a centuries-long line of treasure hunters to bankrupt themselves attempting, and failing, to recover its now-legendary horde.
