Whiskey Gulf

by Clyde Ford

Finally the winter thaw!

Do you wish that you could be out on your boat?

Let this nautical mystery take you to the unfrozen waters off Washington state.

Former Coast Guard Commander Charlie Noble is investigating the disappearance of a sailboat. The SOS from the boat was incomplete. Did the disabled boat enter the "Whiskey Gulf" naval exercise area? A search for information on the owners of the boat turns up little evidence that they existed. With the help of a Canadian reporter, Charlie finds some wreckage. But he is almost killed trying to recover the pieces of the wreck. Using his contacts in the Coast Guard, Charlie learns some information about the couple. Are they pawns in the global war on terrorism? Charlie and his pal, Raven, are drawn into the search for the couple. Will they be able to rescue the couple?

This is the third in a series after Red Herring and Precious Cargo.
