PUBLISHERS WEEKLY
In this lyrical novel of love, violence and drug-fueled treachery from Casey (Human Error), pilot Jason Walker cashes out of his job as a dot-com executive shortly before his marriage goes up in flames, partly because he's had an affair with beautiful Charlotte Lansing. Charlotte's husband, Alan, a shady Wall Street investment banker, may or may not know about the affair, but it's clear from the start he's out to get Jason. Jason relocates to St. Croix and a new job flying airboat charters. Life is good until Charlotte arrives with Alan, who's now into money laundering, pornography and drug running. She's trying to escape her marriage, but when Jason attempts to help, he's shanghaied into a drug scheme that's a one-way ticket to a watery grave. Only guts, quick thinking and some fancy flying save the day. As Norman Mailer's blurb suggests, readers should have no fear of being bored by the flying stuff. Casey, himself a veteran pilot, is too good both in the cockpit and at the keyboard to lose control of this exciting thriller.
