Synopsis

Government agent-turned-marine biologist Doc Ford sails an endless sea of questions when he agrees to investigate a death from the past. Years ago, off Florida’s Gulf Coast, a teenaged girl found an ancient gold medallion. Then she began having nightmares. Then she was found hanging from a tree.

Now, years later, the girl’s mother is being terrorized with break-ins, phone calls with no one there—and her daughter’s grave has been dug up. Somebody wants that medallion.

The search for answers will lead Doc through a shadowy world of ancient ritual and modern corruption, to an evil that was born in the past—but lives in the present …

“One of the most satisfying thrillers in recent memory.”—Chicago Tribune

Pretty good adventure with some unbelievable elements. I have read several of this series and while I like the the action and sense of adventure in these books, they all have elements I find hard to believe. One of those is the seeming irresistible sexual allure of Doc Ford himself. True action adven......more
