The Accidental Spy: A Novel

"A clean, action-packed read filled with unexpected twists and turns."
Midwest Book Review

What happens when an ordinary high school teacher discovers a national security threat--by accident!
Schoolteacher Phil Shepherd never dreamed of becoming a hero. Nuclear bombs and enemy subs were the furthest things from his mind when he set sail off the Florida coast on a pleasure trip. But when a collision leaves him stranded on a raft, he hitches a ride with an unknown vessel, not knowing he's about to face an enemy with devastating plans against the United States! 

Phil's son and a local reporter are trying to get him rescued, but first he must be found. As Phil's plight gains national interest, the public thinks it's following a "lost at sea" tale. The underwater drama heading its way is another story--one only Phil knows.

With God's help, can he stop it in time?
