Black Tide

By Brett Diffley

Book Overview

Black Tide is a thrilling, heart-pounding, continuation of the Pinnacle Award winning Davenport series that will have you turning pages long into the night. Just off the Washington coast, Reed Davenport and the crew of the Crude Technologies skimmer Arc Angel are working hard to clean up an Anacortes oil spill near the San Juan Islands. It's during this operation, they stumble onto a mystery-a WWII torpedo afloat in the Strait of Juan de Fuca. The situation quickly turns deadly when the men in a Coastguard security boat, sent to watch over the relic, are killed in the apparent explosion of the torpedo. But all is not as it appears, and as Reed Davenport, and True John begin to unravel the mystery of the missing relic, they find much more than murderous intrigue. A sinister plot unfolds, dating as far back as the days of Genghis Khan and culminating with a secret weapon built by the Nazi Party. At its center is the Rickter Corporation-a worldwide conglomerate in the mining industry with diversifications in several fields including BIO research. Ruthless and merciless, this company has proved more than willing to kill off the any competition, or anyone who stands in their way. Seemingly related to this, a professional killer emerges, and another storyline begins to unfold when Tom Spears, Chief of Security for Crude Technologies, is drawn back into a dark and ominous past-a past that began with the loss of his family, and then later unfolded into a whole new and unimaginable life. It's that life, that path, and those demons that are coming for him now. Like two freight trains merging onto one track, the climatic collision is brimming with suspense when the truth behind the construction of the secretly made black torpedo, and also the unscrupulous men who seek their revenge against Tom, are revealed and drawn together. Then the race against time begins. Buckle up
