Synopsis

Diving in Grand Cayman, magazine photographer Mike Scott notices a series of unusual occurrences including the death of a girl, a protest of new development and the systematic destruction of coral reefs. It all comes together when armed men warn him away from a dive site. Investigating, he witnesses a specially-equipped submarine destroying the reef. Before he is able to report the destruction to the authorities, he and his dive buddy, Kelly, are kidnapped-along with Kelly's girlfriend Tanya. Friends rescue Mike and Tanya, but the assassin gets away with Kelly, taking him to die. They must race against time to save Kelly and bring down the greedy developer putting his own wealth before the beauty of the island and the welfare of the people. Action, adventure, intrigue and the environment all come into play in this novel by author Eric Douglas. Set at Sunset House on Grand Cayman, a diving must-visit for many divers, this book highlights the beautiful locations and touches on the potential for abuse as the environment and development fall into conflict. This is the first book in the Mike Scott thriller series.
