Not your usual fare

The things you expect to happen don't. Our heroes are seriously flawed. But you will be hooked. Good job.

exhilarating thriller

In Bell Harbor, Florida, only four months out of law school, attorney Dan Shaw hates his job. His clients consist of losers or mentally challenged sent to him by other lawyers to work plea bargains. His last two patrons put him over the edge when one wants to sue the CIA for placing a microchip in her womb and the other has no idea how a meth lab ended up in his garage. Dan needs to escape especially since his former fiancée married someone else and the local cops show interest in a deadly incident involving him in Italy. Dan sails the Caribbean on his boat the Roamer when he sees a naked woman swimming towards him 85 miles from any land. He brings her on board and treats her dehydration and numerous jelly fish bites. She is Katherine Adams- Cardinal who has been reported missing by her spouse. Kate tells Dan that her husband threw her off their ship, blaming her falling over board on alcohol. She wants to return to her home in Santo Domingo to get her child back from her husband; Dan agrees to help her though he knows how deadly this Cesar is. THE BLOOD RED SEA is an exhilarating thriller that starts off as a legal tale, but quickly turns into a tense romantic suspense. The story line turns from tongue in cheek humor to non-stop action from the moment that Kate "rescues" herself from the sea and never slows down until the final confrontation. Though the characters are never fully developed even Dan seems to be missing a bicep or two, no one will care as readers will appreciate Ron Faust's fine tale. Harriet Klausner
