After completing his PhD, Peter Case returns home, eager to join his best friend’s marine salvage business on the Canadian West Coast. The cheerful prospect of getting on with his life is quickly shattered by a hair-raising highway pursuit through the Rockies. The intrigue and chaos that hounded him in Jamaica had followed him home.
Between attempts on his life, a sketchy salvage job, and a mysterious whistling saviour, Case sifts through lies and half-truths as he delves deeper into the mystery. His search lures him into a multi-agency manhunt for an international crime syndicate operating somewhere within the rugged beauty of the Gulf Islands.
Case can only be sure of two unfortunate truths. First, he’d obviously pissed off the wrong people in Jamaica. Second, while the agency was hunting the syndicate, the syndicate was hunting him.
