Fallen Palm: A Jesse McDermitt Novel - Paperback

by Wayne Stinnett (Author)

Jesse lives alone on an isolated island in the Keys and runs a charter fishing business. Retired from the Marines for 6 years, he wants nothing more than to relax, fish, dive and enjoy the lifestyle of the islands. An old friend dies unexpectedly in a mysterious diving accident and Jesse becomes suspicious. His friend's son comes to south Florida to ask Jesse to take him to a remote reef to spread his father's ashes and the two men discover that it was murder and agree to hunt down the psychotic killer together, unaware that their manhunt will lead them to a terrorist cell. A beautiful woman returns to the Keys on a manhunt of her own, distracting Jesse with the idea that he could finally leave his warrior past behind. The search for lost treasure, high speed boat chases and dodging demented killers, won't stop Jesse from revenge. Surviving a hurricane puts everything on hold as a secret government agency tries to recruit him. But when the sun comes back out, will Jesse be ready?
