Sharks and Prey

J.R. Finn Sailing Mystery Series, Book 8

By: Charles Dougherty

Narrated by: David Bosco

Kidnapping, sex-trafficking, and betrayal in the islands.

J.R. Finn's daughter Abby disappeared from a beach resort in Antigua while on a semester break. Finn and Mary have just arrived in Antigua aboard Island Girl to relax between missions. They learn that Abby's missing when they see a poster in the Customs and Immigration office.

Finn has never met Abby; her mother divorced him while he was on a clandestine mission, over 20 years ago. He hasn't spoken to his ex-wife since he left on the mission, but he's followed his daughter's life from afar. Distressed, Finn calls his ex-wife and offers his help.

Join Finn and Mary in Antigua as they wreak havoc while looking for Abby and her roommate.

Another pause-resister in the J. R. Finn Series, Sharks and Prey is perfect for fans of mystery/thrillers set in the Caribbean.

This Time iI's Personal

I received this book for free. I am voluntarily posting this review and any opinions expressed herein are my own.

This is the eigth book in the JR Finn Sailing Mystery series. I am absolutely hooked. and highly recommend that you start with the first book in the series to really get into the characters and their development. Having said [written] that, this is a standalone story and the author does provide brief summaries of past events.

Finally, some of Finn's backstory is revealed and the mission in this story relates to Finn's past [no spoilers]. Great twists and action sequences. My favorite parts are always the investigations of Finn and Mary to get to the target.

The narrator, David Bosco, is the same throughout the series and is terrific.

Twists and turns!

Another well-written book by Charles Dougherty into the seedy world of greed and kidnapping.

David Bosco did a great job narrating and bringing the characters to life.

Finn is back!!!!!

I am always excited when a new book in this series comes out. All of the books have been varying degrees of excellent and this book just ratchets up one more notch.

Finn's daughter is kidnapped and the bodies start dropping. To be fair, the people behind the kidnapping had no idea what they unleashed but Finn and Mary were on a mission. Loved it!!!!!

I listened to this book in one sitting and at the very satisfying end, I just wanted more.

The dynamic duo of Dougherty and Bosco are my super heroes!!

Even better

This one gets personal! Finns daughter is kidnapped. You know he’s not going to just sit by and do nothing. There are some twists and turns in this one (as with all of the series) that you may not see coming. Just how far will they have to go to get his daughter back, there are no limits!
I love this series. Finn and Mary are two of my favorite characters from this genre. Anyone who likes mystery, spies, sailing, murders, and really smart characters will love this too.
David Bosco is a brilliant narrator. I can’t imagine anyone else voicing Finn. He is amazing!

I total enjoyed this book, my favorite so far as showed a softer side of Finn and Mary while involving family and still a lot of brutal action and good narration. I was given this free review copy audiobook and have voluntarily left this review. THANK YOU!
