Publisher's summary

Things in the Middle Florida Keys aren’t as idyllic as they seem. If one looks closely, there’s a layer of dirt just below the surface. The butt-ugly kind of dirt that’s hard to get off.

Things move slowly in the Keys—locals call it island time—but there are some for whom it seems that time is at a standstill; whose clocks revolve only around the tides, fish migrations, and the rising and setting of the sun and moon.

Jesse McDermitt remembers the Keys the way he’d first found them as a young man. He’s lived on his little island in the Content Keys for a long time and he’s learned to adapt to some of the change. But not all of it has been positive, and it seems the dirt has a way of finding Jesse, sticking to his feet like Everglades mud.

Is it finally time to go away? To completely disappear? He has the means and there are places in the world where the dirt hasn’t settled. Places he’d like to show his wife and family.

A group of would-be yacht thieves attack the wrong boat, unleashing a series of events that will ensure their downfall. They come when most people are sleeping—under the cover of darkness. But nighttime and Jesse McDermitt are old and dear friends. Against his will, and along with his family and friends, Jesse is thrust back into the struggle between right and wrong one more time. And this time, it gets personal.

I’m Celebrating…

…the return of Wayne Stinnett to Audible!! It’s been a while that I’ve been buying Stinnett’s books directly from his website and importing them to my Audible app but it’s so much easier to buy directly from Audible and just listen. So if anybody out there in charge of the availability of books I would like to request that you/he continues to offer future books directly. Thank you in advance.

Anyway this is the 27th book in the Jesse McDermott Caribbean Adventure Series. If you’re new to the series this book can be listened to as a standalone however I do think listening to at least some of the previous books in this series will give you a greater understanding of the whole what and why the characters behave in the manner that they do.
When Jesse’s family is threatened he responds with extreme violence and aggression. Again knowing some of his past as a reader I would expect no less.
This is a fast paced, testosterone laced action thriller. When it comes to Jesse McDermott I expect no less. When he’s involved the good guys always win even if they have to get their hands dirty to do so. The bad guys usually end up in the ground.

Nick Sullivan is a phenomenal narrator. He does an amazing job with this and every book he narrates. He is also an excellent writer. If you haven’t picked up his The Deep series I Highly Recommend it as well.

This book has my Very Highest Recommendation!!
