Coastal Adventure Series #3

Shadow Cast: A Brock Finlander Novel

Rate this book
Retired ex-astronaut, Brock Finlander wants to enjoy the good life, get things back to normal, and forget the past. Despite the things that he had seen over the years, surely, not every legend was true.

But a meteor storm over the waters of Claw Island would change all that when Brock captures one of the meteorites that tore through his boat. Now, he finds himself getting sucked back into a world that he desperately wanted to leave behind.

And he may have been able to walk away, that is, until an examination of the extraterrestrial rock unknowingly triggers a turbulent reaction, revealing its deadly properties.

Brock discovers there are more meteorites. Many more. And they are multiplying. But, when his grandson gets caught in the web of harm, he decides to do something about it.

Together, Brock and his family must combine all their strengths to put an end to the army of unwelcome visitors, but doing so may come at an unimaginable cost.

If you like thrilling action and heartwarming, endearing characters, you’ll love this coastal action-adventure set in Maryland’s Chesapeake Bay, surrounded by NASA, NOAA, the Coast Guard, and the Annapolis Naval Academy.

In 2011, Foster began work on a TV comedy series, writing four complete scripts and outlining an entire 13-episode series. Although Amazon Studios ultimately decided not to produce the show, Foster continued telling stories.

In 2014, Foster began writing satirical news stories for a national satire web site. He eventually partnered with Paul Horner to create a news website and publish some of the most popular viral fake-news hoaxes to garner national attention. They continued writing fake-news comedy until Horner's untimely death in September of 2017.

Foster spent over a decade working at NASA on the team that designed, built, tested and installed new upgraded hardware for the Hubble Space Telescope. His team was responsible for training astronauts on the use of custom tools and instruments to be installed on the telescope during on-orbit servicing missions. Foster helped develop a system to catalog and organize over 250,000 photos and video of space flight hardware, tools, training methods and spacewalk choreography for use during Hubble servicing missions.

He also worked on many other smaller NASA missions before being recruited by the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA) as the ground systems engineer and satellite analyst for the US National Search and Rescue Program, known as SARSAT, and collaborating with NASA, the US Coast Guard, and US Air Force. For over a decade, Foster has continued to serve as an analyst for the US Search and Rescue Satellite-Aided Tracking program.

Today, Foster lives on an island in Maryland's Chesapeake Bay just across from Annapolis and the US Naval Academy and writes a Chesapeake Bay Coastal Adventure series of novels featuring ex-astronaut Brock Finlander where he dreams up fantastical action-adventure stories that lean heavily on plausible science fiction.

An entertaining read
I haven't read either of the previous books, but the author provided enough information on the backstory to not have to read them. I enjoyed it more than I thought I would. The characters were interesting. I felt like Katie kind of took a backseat from most of the action, but maybe she has more of a role in the other books.

Wow!!! Some strange things are happening on the Bay. Brock is thrust into the action. Finn, Jessa and Jules are in the action too.

Great 3rd book, Eric. What an imagination. The details and action are wonderful.
