"This might be the best nautical detective story this year." Albert Griesmayr, Founder of Scribando

Searching for it are its owner, a millionaire who wants to make a killing by selling it to the Middle East's highest bidder, a former racing skipper, his teenage son, and a tall, blonde Swedish policewoman who can dive, punch hard and shoot straight.Mix into this Proven?al Bouillabaisse the Corsican Mafia, an underwater hijacking, a pink-painted racing yacht advertising a non-existent beer, and a murderous off-shore shoot-out, and you have the menu for a good weekend read. If you love detective stories and the sea, this is the book for you!
