The Blond Eye

What if your wife, daughter, and boat had vanished when you surfaced from a scuba dive? What would you do? Pete Morrow, a San Diego man, finds himself in that position while vacationing in Mexico. Without a trace, boats have been disappearing for six months--most with beautiful women onboard. The police and community are baffled until Chase Brannon, a burned out ex-American government operative running a charter service, discovers the mutilated body of a young boy and girl washed up on the beach. The young girl has been beaten and raped, the boy's ears severed and parts of his torso missing. A week after Brannon's brutal discovery, another charter captain and his boat is hijacked and missing. Brannon is determined to find his friend and bring the hijackers to justice--his justice. In his attempt to track down the killers, his past and dark side surface--a part of him he was trying to bury. His problems exacerbate when a Phoenix newspaper sends its vivacious, bilingual reporter, Calandria Perez, down to Mexico to cover the story. A reticent Chase Brannon meets head-on with the explosive reporter. They forge a bizarre relationship as they search for the killers and justice.
