What starts as a simple hobby becomes a deadly game of cat and mouse when Rick Waters stumbles upon something far more valuable than buried treasure—the shocking remains of a gruesome murder. This isn't your typical beachcombing adventure; it's a heart-pounding journey that will take you deep into the mysterious bayous of southeast Texas, across the blue waters of the Caribbean, and into the shadowy world of Haitian voodoo.
Rick Waters is a man who's never met a job he couldn't handle, or rather, a job he could hold down for long. As a jack-of-all-trades—treasure hunter, diver, part-time detective—he makes his living the only way he knows how: by searching for stolen cars, finding missing persons, catching catfish from the bayou, and even gambling in pool halls. Every dollar he earns brings him one step closer to his ultimate dream: owning his very own fishing yacht and charter business.
When Rick's latest metal detecting expedition reveals evidence of a young woman's murder, his simple life takes a dangerous turn. What begins as a quest for closure transforms into a fight for survival as he follows the trail from the sun-drenched beaches of the Virgin Islands to the dangerous drug dens of Haiti. Along the way, Rick must rely on his street smarts, diving skills, and ability to read people to stay one step ahead of a ruthless killer.
As Rick delves deeper into the investigation, he discovers that some mysteries are worth more than gold. With each clue he uncovers, he moves closer to justice for the murdered woman while simultaneously pursuing his own dream of independence. Set against the backdrop of vibrant Caribbean locales and the murky bayous of Texas, this adventure delivers suspense, danger, and the promise of treasure in the most unexpected places.
Perfect for fans of mystery novels with a touch of adventure, Blue Waters introduces readers to Rick Waters—a hero who's as resourceful as he is relatable. Whether you're curled up on the couch or reading by the beach, this story will transport you to another world while keeping you on the edge of your seat.
