Synopsis

Ex-Navy SEAL Adam Weldon tracks down kidnappers who have the San Francisco Bay Area teetering on the brink of societal collapse. In this wild, irresistible, white-knuckled ride—much of it via sailboat—through not only the Bay’s world-famous watery landscape but also its unique subcultures and quirky neighborhoods, Adam allies with a tech savvy Oakland cop, child sicario hitmen and undercover FBI agent Tripnee to battle an out-of-control Silicon Valley billionaire, a charismatic cult with dark secrets, Bay pirates, an apparently unstoppable cartel well on its way to achieving the total and absolute corruption of the Bay Area, and moral rot extending into the highest reaches of the US government.

In the course of this gripping, life-and-death race against time, Adam comes to understand his extraordinary uncle—and himself—as never before. Could his Uncle Peace, a cantankerous ex-Zen monk, be the key not only to saving the Bay Area—and America—but also to sparking a civilizing cultural and spiritual renaissance?

Unlike some of t......more

Goodreads review by Jacqueline on October 12, 2024

Action & Excitement on Every Page! I’m glad there was a cast of characters at the start of the book; I read it before beginning the novel and it helped in sorting everyone out as the story unfolded. There is tons of action in this story, and while it could be seen as a bit contrived, I think it playe......more

This is a non-stop action thriller set on the amazing San Francisco Bay waters. It's a fast read with some interesting characters and some believability regarding corruption in our government.
