The Lies Beneath

An overturned kayak. A faceless shape in the darkness. A woman's soundless scream.

When liveaboard sailor and amateur sleuth Sandi Beck sets sail for Norfolk and the Intracoastal Waterway, she is ready to put the past behind her. But her plans for a new life are shattered in the first twenty-four hours when a former CIA agent's body washes ashore in Virginia Beach. Now every mile southward draws her deeper into a world of bioterrorism, political intrigue, and human greed. Her search for a missing scientist will expose our most dangerous enemy--not the one we can see, but the one that lives within us, sustained by our secrets, feeding on the lies we hide beneath.
