Narrado por: Nick Sullivan

It’s been three months since Jesse McDermitt had any time off to go back home to Florida. When two surprise openings on the leave roster open up, he and his friend Rusty Thurman jump on it, and head back to the Keys for some scuba diving.

The husband of a local reporter’s friend has nearly been killed. Not once, but four times in less than a month. The reporter is Jesse’s new girlfriend and they become curious. How does a man survive four attempts on his life?

Meanwhile, the man Jesse helped put away is doing time in Florida State Prison, hundreds of miles to the north. But Bear Bering isn’t completely cutoff. His cousin, Chuck, is still working the tourist crowds in Key West and has learned that Jesse and Rusty are back in town.

Suddenly, Jesse and his friends are in danger, and once again they are forced to leave. A biker gang, under Chuck Bering’s direction, comes after Jesse and his friends. The leader, a mountain of a man named Sideshift, served time with Bear and both he and chuck want to see Jesse and anyone around him crushed.

Young Jessie’s knowledge with so much stuff

This had some pretty good twist and turns in it and you’re starting to see the character build in young Jessie, which is the vice or retired Jessie

The characters

Interesting to see
Jesse at an early age also happy to meet Rusty and y the girld

Fresh and Outstanding

I really love this young version Jesse. It breaths some much needed new life into the original series. The building of a great main character and friends. Love how they get the bad guys in this series before the access to all the high end weapons they have in the original series. So it's a little more incentive in down to earth sorta way. Decided to go back and read the original series when Jesse is retired from Marine Corps. It made the original series even better.

Early Jesse

Always love our Jesse stories. Love that this book let's us know how his many friendships and alliances began.

Not so good

Weak story. Endless and pointless dialogue and detail that didn’t advance what little story there was. Found myself skipping through chapter after chapter looking for anything that advanced the storyline, Not sure how this one got published.
