by Michael Puterbaugh (Author)
Dean Hunter, ex-NFL defensive end, ex-police detective, has adapted nicely to his off-the-grid lifestyle as owner of the Sandy Turtle reggae bar in Fernandina Beach, Florida. That is, until his old college flame Marcia appears on the porch of the Turtle. In a drunken slur, Marcia asks Dean to help find Jaime, the guy who stole Marcia from Dean back in their college days. Dean finds himself traveling to Fort Lauderdale and the Dominican Republic in search of Jaime. It seems Dean isn't the only one looking for Jaime, who may have stolen more than Marcia from Dean. Something the federal government and a quasi mafia boss are after. Why, then, was Dean trying to find Jaime? For the girl, of course.
