Dangerous Shoals is the third book in the Jack Beale Mystery series of books. This book continues the story started in Changing Tides, the second book in the series. The Jack Beale books do not need to be read in order but I do recommend that you read book two and three in order to fully understand the story line. In Dangerous Shoals Jack and his girlfriend Max, while trying to enjoy a relaxing and romantic summer, find dangers from their past are resurfacing and bringing with them even more trouble. Can Jack (and his pet cat, Cat) solve this mystery before more people die? And yes, I did say his pet cat. I loved the role that Cat played in this novel and I look forward to more antics from Jack’s feline companion.
