SHADOW ISLANDS

Narrado por: Virtual Voice

Mick Morkan and Ike Sears represent Nguyet Finn and Cassandra Correa, Vietnam veterans and victims of the Iran-Contra Affair. Nguyet’s husband was killed, and Cass grievously injured flying supply missions to Contra guerrillas in Nicaragua. They recover large verdicts against Harley Montaigne, an operative who ran the Contra operation. However, the jury lets the higher-up defendants off the hook—and Harley’s assets are limited to a sport fishing boat, woefully insufficient to cover the verdicts.

Before Morkan and Sears can seize Harley’s boat, he tells them that the higher-ups had pledged to create a fund to cover death and injury for those flying the missions, but never did. However, Hector Ozuna, an ex-CIA agent who worked with Harley, used Hector’s access to the higher-ups’ bank accounts to make off with millions. Before he disappeared, Hector hid some of that cash for Nguyet and Cass in case they failed to recover in the lawsuit. Harley suggests they combine efforts to find that money. They uncover a mysterious map but need Harley’s help to find the exact location. Everyone distrusts Harley, but they follow him into the Caribbean on Cass's boat. Chief among the perils awaiting them is Flint, a rogue agent with whom Morkan has a troubling history from the Vietnam War.
