Dead Reckoning

by Craig Pennington

Down in their luck, and looking for a decent payday, Parker Reese and the crew of the island trader Christina, agree to a nefarious smuggling operation. The job – go to the island of Dominica and bring back frozen cadavers for the medical school in Montserrat. The hitch – the deal isn't what it seems. Parker is soon fighting for his life in the jungle mountains and on the high seas, dealing with body snatchers, Cuban insurgents, and nuclear terrorists, while INTERPOL closes in.
