From the author of Nothing Lasts Forever, which was made into the movie Die Hard, comes a heart pounding thriller!
When a young Coast Guard Lieutenant Commander, Sam Merrill, finds a "ghost" yacht full of a billion dollars worth of gold, money and contraband, he becomes a national sensation and the poster boy for America's war on drugs. As a reward, the government sends Sam and his wife, Amy, on an all expense paid vacation to the Bahamas. Sam's newfound fame quickly becomes a nightmare when Amy is kidnapped not long after they arrive in the tropical paradise. Sam is confronted with the pursuit of his life to save his wife and ultimately himself as he faces death defying challenges at every turn and a drug kingpin named Chino who will stop at nothing to see him dead.
Severely over his head, outgunned and outnumbered when the chase leads him to Cartagena, Sam has to overcome insurmountable odds as he races against time to figure out why his wife was kidnapped, where she is being held and to save her from bad guys who will stop at nothing to achieve their goals.
