Bimini Run

E. Howard Hunt

Back Cover: Death Waters! Hank Sturgis had ostensibly been hired to skipper the yacht Vela in its deadly hunt for the giant Manta-ray, but his was actually to be a more dangerous assignment--to act as stud for the lovely Leslie Crawford. There were man-eating sharks below, the savage rage of a spurned husband above. And before Hank would finally head the yacht home for Miami, the blue Caribbean waters would run red. As in his first best-selling novel 'East of Farewell' and his recent 'Berlin Ending', E. Howard Hunt proves again that he is a master story teller as well as a man of action. In this compelling narrative of violence and sex in the Caribbean, he exploits the knowledge he learned so well as one of the key figures in the Bay of Pigs invasion and in his twenty years as a CIA agent. From Inside Front Cover: "...the men spun wildly together, cursing and choking--forming a kaleidoscope of hate that moved in a frenetic unit toward the port seat. Sturgis saw a chance and jabbed the butt at Crawford's head, but a flailing arm turned the blow, pitching Sturgis forward, off-balance. Turning back, he raised the gun to try to end the madness, not caring which man went down--wanting only to stop the crazed struggle--but the men's knees lurched heavily against the seat, making a brief and deadly fulcrum that overbalanced their bodies and toppled them across the coaming and over the side into a swirl of foam."
