Laura Reid likes her new job on Tenerife, teaching the Spanish twins Maria and Ricardo Chavez. She certainly doesn't want to get involved with Andrew Kirby and his pal, Jalbala Emcheta, who work for CITES, tracking down illegal traders in endangered species. Yet she's undeniably drawn to Andrew, which is complicated, as she's also attracted to Felipe, the brother of her widower host, Don Alonso.
Felipe's girlfriend Lola is jealous and Laura is forced to take sides - risking her own life - as she and Andrew uncover the criminal network that not only deals in the products from endangered species, but also thrives on people trafficking. The pair are aided by two Spanish lawmen, Lieutenant Vargas of the Guardia Civil and Ruben Salazar, Inspector Jefe del Grupo de Homicidios de las Canarias.
Very soon betrayal and mortal danger lurk in the shadows, along with the dark deeds of kidnapping and clandestine scuba diving... .
'... Nik Morton has woven a masterfully written fictional story based on these appalling facts - a thriller and romance rolled into one that draws you in with plenty of suspense and fast paced action. Each chapter ends with a hook leading you eagerly on to the next. The characters and all the location settings on the island are colourfully realised.'
