Quotes by Peter M. Hunt  (?)
Quotes are added by the Goodreads community and are not verified by Goodreads. (Learn more)

With an incurable illness, no prospect of financial reward, little chance of success, brain surgery looming, and one child in college with another about to start, I was not in a position to spend thousands of dollars on a search.

― Peter M. Hunt, The Lost Intruder, the Search for a Missing Navy Jet
