From the author of Blindsided & Time on the Wire. Left for dead by smugglers, Will Taggert must figure out how to save the damaged luxury yacht, the Venetian, and get her home to the U.S. With the yacht barely sea worthy, Will knows it won't be the little-umbrellas-in-fancy-drinks pleasure cruise he was promised. Worse, he's worried about what's waiting for him in Florida. Banning Sloan, the bank CEO who sent him to Rio to collect the yacht, is suddenly being evasive. Garcia Cabrera, Sloane's nemesis and the yacht's former owner, may be trying to steal her back. And then there's his newfound relationship with the yacht's chef—the mysterious Su Li. Is she on his side or is she working for someone else? Granted, the Venetian is a valuable yacht, but Will's convinced there's more to it than that. Something—some contraband—has to be hidden onboard. When the Venetian arrives in Florida, all the players converge and Will hopes to get answers. Instead, the killing begins. As one after another of the key players are eliminated, Will realizes he's caught in a cat and mouse game with the killer. With the help of the authorities, Will sets in motion a plan to lure the killer to them. It works. Too well. Will finds himself face to face with the killer, a gun barrel once again pressed to his forehead. Tough spot. But he's come too far to let this guy beat him now.
