Retired government intelligence agent Dr. Shawn Callison has moved to the Florida Keys to start a new life. Shawn and his wife Angie are on top of the world-until Angie's brother Zander arrives on the run, carrying stolen drug money.
When Zander is kidnapped and held for ransom, Shawn's old instincts kick in, and he and Angie plunge into a mission to free him. But when their plan goes sideways, Shawn must turn to his old boss for help, dragging him back into the shadowy life he wanted to escape.
Shawn soon finds himself in a race against time to locate a lost nuclear bomb in the waters off Florida's Middle Keys. He faces a ruthless international arms dealer, a cold-blooded Russian oligarch with nothing to lose, and a dangerous one-eyed double agent intent on revenge.
Set in a tightly focused area between Islamorada and Marathon, this thriller immerses readers in a vividly real Florida Keys setting while delivering fast-paced action, smart and capable protagonists, and a high-stakes story that keeps readers on the edge of their seats.
