Countdown to Nassau (Paperback)

Paperback. He promised his daughter a vacation. Instead, he brought her onto a ship with a killer. Mike Dorset joins his sister Erin, her husband Nate, their two teenagers, and Mike's five-year-old daughter Ellie for a short cruise to the Caribbean, hoping for a few ordinary days after the events that nearly broke his life. But before the ship can settle into its first night at sea, Mike discovers Ruth Calder is onboard for a reason. Someone is hunting a hidden passenger list. The killer is disciplined, patient, and tied to the buried operational world Mike thought he had escaped. He knows how to move through crowds without looking suspicious, how to turn ship systems into weapons, and how to make frightened families obey the wrong voice at exactly the wrong moment. With Nassau only thirty-two hours away, Mike is forced into a secret alliance with head of security Nico Alvarez and Ruth Calder to identify the intended targets, protect his family, and stop a murderer before the ship becomes the perfect escape route. What follows is a fast-moving thriller of false alarms, disguised operatives, sealed corridors, manipulated technology, and impossible choices. On a cruise ship full of strangers, Mike has to decide when to chase the killer, when to stay with the people he loves, and how much of his old self he is willing to become again to keep them alive. Countdown to Nassau is a thriller about family, containment, and the terror of knowing that in a floating city, danger does not need to break in. It can smile, show a badge, and ask you to follow.
