A Fortune in Blood

A Florida Action Adventure Novel (Scott Jarvis, Private Investigator)

The tropical jungles of Central America teem with betrayal, lust, greed, and international intrigue that threaten to explode and take everything Scott Jarvis loves with them....

Florida private investigator Scott Jarvis is finally getting his life back on an even keel after the harrowing end to his search for a Nazi U-boat. When he gets a call from his friend Clay to come down to Costa Rica and visit, it seems like a much-needed change of pace - yet something is brewing beneath the surface.

Miles Palmer and his ex-wife Andrea are battling for control over their multi-million-dollar, multi-national green technology company. With so much at stake, both estranged spouses are plotting to prove that the other is incapable so that they can wrest total control of EcoLife for themselves. Unfortunately, Clay Delaney and his family are drawn into this struggle for power that threatens to turn deadly and exposes an international plot that could destabilize the entire Central American Isthmus.

With time running short and little to go on, Scott Jarvis must smash his way through the lies and mysteries and avoid death at every turn before Clay, his wife, and his three children become the first casualties in a bloody revolution and fight for ultimate power!

Tensions mount and bullets fly in this non-stop mystery adventure romp through the jungles, mountains, and rivers of Costa Rica and Nicaragua!

Amazing book series

Scott is an amazing writer. I’m located in central Fla. It’s great knowing we’re a lot of the locations are in the books.

Funny

I love the chemistry of Jarvis and his friends makes me laugh so much. I listen to at work and I have people stare at me cause I just can’t stop laughing. I even cry from this laughter.

No let down here!

Wow, we have to keep SWC in good health and strapped to his computer writing many more adventures. His witty and pithy style keeps you engrossed from beginning to end. Weaving new adventures with characters from the past is a roller coaster ride we readers/listeners never want to end. Unlike some authors, you’ll never be disappointed at the next book. Love to see Dave Alexander back turning Scott’s book into amazing listening for us fans. I know you readers are probably enjoying reading these adventures, but Dave’s narration kicks it up to another level. If you love the books you’ll be enthralled by the audible version. Love to see Lisa back and look forward to seeing them back in action in future books. Now, it’s time to fill my coffee cup, light a cigar then download and listen to the next offering.

So much fun

I am glad that I found this author. His books are so much fun. As soon as I finish one, I have to start another one. I’ll be sad when I run out of books.

Jarvis is limitless

I love this guy! he is like a cross between Magnum PI and Han Solo, then a bit of Captian America shaken not stirred. Always a good time reading. Thank you Scott W. Cook
