While the world is looking back at the worldwide history of slavery, Amira and Sten find themselves fighting it today in the Caribbean.

Sten and Amira intensify the investigation into the criminal organization called THE GROUP, and their focus is on the activities of Mr. Kruzan. This results in real and directed threats against them. To allow the dust to settle Commissioner Jones tells them to take a well-deserved vacation which they reluctantly do.

They decide to sail to the island of Carriacou, and while doing so, happen to anchor off the island of Ronde next to three vessels that pique their interest. After looking into them, they realize that they probably belong to THE GROUP. This is unsettling for Sten and Amira, but they continue on and meet up with Constable Keisha McFarlane in Carriacou and celebrate Carnival with her and her family, a wonderful start to their vacation.

A phone call the next morning changes all of that. Three girls are missing, and the three vessels from THE GROUP that had also arrived in Carriacou for Carnival are nowhere to be seen. Is there a connection? Sten is certain there is, and after investigating, determines that they have been kidnapped for trafficking and taken to the tiny private resort on Young Island off the island of St. Vincent.

What follows is a fast and dangerous rescue mission, under cover of darkness, and a high seas chase, to get the girls back to Carriacou before it’s too late and the girls are lost forever.

With a powerful and well-armed enemy to face, will Sten and Amira be able to get the girls to freedom? Read this third book in the Island Mysteries series to find out.
