Water, water everywhere--
Deadlier than you’d think!
In Will Harper’s latest hardboiled, action-packed adventure, Floridian families are shocked--and occasionally killed--when their brand-new houses start falling into the earth. The culprit? Lethal sinkholes worsened by climate change. But government officials and one particularly greedy developer keep turning a blind eye.
And as the homeowners suddenly realize their sinkhole-ridden land is worthless, they’re sometimes driven to homicidal behavior...
Will, a semi-retired investigative reporter turned amateur sleuth, is too big-hearted not to get involved. While researching a hard-hitting expose on climate change and the quality of water in Florida, he discovers the deceitful real estate developer is constructing an entire development on top of a massive sinkhole. Whole neighborhoods could slide into the muck!
The developer will stop at nothing to conceal his intricate fraud, but luckily, Will comes equipped with his ever-sharp prose, his commitment to Florida social issues, his beloved trawler, The Wanderlust, and a little help from his friends.
Still, the shoddy real estate cartel’s a behemoth— fortunately for the reader, it won’t be easy!
The adventures of Will Harper will be a boon for seafarers and armchair adventurers alike! Anyone who enjoys the work of John D. McDonald and Wayne Stinnett will find a new favorite sleuth. Fans of Zane Mitchell will also appreciate Will’s tough but caring--and witty!—style.
