From the Back Cover:
When an accident claims the life of an oil-rig worker, Coast Guard Investigators Rissi Dawson and Mason Rogers are flown to the scene thirty-eight miles from shore. Tensions aboard the rig are high, and the death has everyone on edge. Environmental activists just off the rig's starboard side are threatening to do whatever it takes to stop the "plague on the environment" from continuing its work. Meanwhile, rumors are circulating on board about an ancient curse lurking in the depths below.
Mounting evidence shows the death might not have been an accident. Was the man killed by one of the activists or, more frighteningly, a member of his own crew? Rissi and Mason have to sort through not only numerous suspects, but also their own haunted past and their attraction to each other.
Just as the case seems about to break open, worse news arrives: a tropical storm has turned their way. Now they're cut off from any rescue--right where the killer wants them.
My Thoughts:
I really enjoyed this book, and I thought it was even better than the first book in this series. Rissi and Mason's story has it all, murder mystery, legendary curse, frightening storm, and of course, a love story. It's fun to see these two longtime friends with a deep connection born out of adversity come back into each others lives after such a long time. The mystery throughout the story is fun to solve as the characters piece together more and more of the clues. This story also sets up some other fun interaction for the other characters on this CGIS team, and it's a great lead in for their upcoming stories. This book was quite a ride from cover to cover and I would highly recommend it.
My Rating: ★★★★★
