Interesting characters and lots of excitement plus an interesting setting made this a fun read. It built in intensity until there was a powder keg waiting to go off. But man were those tourists stupid! Of course their poor decisions made for a great story so…
This second book in the series will definitely have me coming back for more Mac!

Too bizarre
I left this book at chapter 47....just could not invest anymore time in it. Fiction is fiction but needs to at least be plausible.....and plausibility is really scarce here. People this stupid and this irresponsible can't even be justified in fiction. I was looking forward to an enjoyable series....disappointed. plot way too tedious.

In the second (or 6th if you count the prequels) Mac Travis adventure, five tourists fish a "square grouper" out of the Gulf Stream, a huge cash of cocaine. By the time drug dealing psychopaths, terrorists, law enforcement of various agencies, Mac and Mel, and especially trouble magnet Trufante get involved, chaos ensues. There's a lot of running around, torture, kidnappings, and murder, where every character's plans go wrong in spectacularly unpredictable ways. It's a sort of dark version of the film What's Up, Doc?. It's exciting, but also exhausting and repetitive. Sometimes the author's breaknet narrative pace leads him to confuse the reader as to who is speaking or even how four characters split into two teams. I like the characters, the setting, and the diving, so I will be continuing the series, but I'm hoping for some less hectic, tighter plots.

Audiobook review- very good narrator, easy listening with a pleasant voice.
Story review: The story was entertaining, lots of action and fast pace. Although many people made stupid decisions which caused me to yell at them, it made for an enjoyable book. I have been to the Florida Keys and Marathon so I liked the setting and could relate to the descriptions. Beware - There were some gory scenes.

A Great Book to Read
Went on a cruise to Key West a few years ago and liked it. When I saw where this story was taking place I had to read it. I’m happy I did because I really liked it. If you like reading about adventure and action along with drug smugglers you’ll enjoy this book.

This book starts kind of slow and the plot drags and I almost put it down but glad I kept on reading. The last half of the book much more captivating and a page turner. Living in FL, this book has some special interest because the location is in places that I am familiar with and that adds to the interest.

Mac Travis and Tru get caught up in a drug smuggling case which included a shipment of plutonium for a Terrorist plot which had everyone scrambling to avoid the smugglers and the terrorists. Another good adventure in Florida.

Great series!
Having lived in FL for most of my life, I love reading books set in FL, and this series does an amazing job of accurately describing the area.
I’ve read Books 1 & 2 so far and they are both page turners!

Druggies and Terrorists
Exciting page turner with unexpected twists and turns. It eould have rated five stars bit for the inexplicable door kicking in incident that seemed designed to just add a bit of unnecessary drama to the story. However, worth the read

Another good adventure with Mac, Mel and Tru.
The descriptions of the geography of the Keys are so good I could image myself being there. Our erstwhile team get into a whole lot of trouble yet again and get out of it by no means unscathed. Well worth a read.

Or does trouble find him?
Always a new disaster around the corner. Jules and Heather really added to this story about drug smugglers and terrorists.

Fun Read
This has some good details of the area the book focused on and quite a bit of local color. If you enjoy the beach scene diving or boating then you will enjoy this.

To many twists
Mr. Becker can at times add to many twists to the story line I think just to add to the "word" count.
