Shots in the Dark

Gail Buckland

From New England to the West Indies to Baja, whether as mate or master mechanic, Neal Donahoe had made a career of the sea -- and cultivated a gift for communing with his nautical surroundings, while focusing his keenest attention on the immediate task at hand. As an officer of Santa Barbara's Harbor Patrol, he'll find this talent indispensable. For the three-man crew of the DEA chase boat Blue Thunder has just met a mysterious and violent end on what was supposed to be a routine bust. Then, in a burst of midnight terror, Neal's lover becomes a human inferno when a bomb hidden aboard her luxury yacht explodes. Suddenly elevated to both chief sleuth and leading suspect, Neal joins forces with Coast Guard Lt. Tory Lennox, in a partnership that will test the limits of police professionalism and civilian passion. Together Neal and Tory will track leads from the scuzziest wharf rats to southern California's most glittering elite.
