Synopsis

Its cool gulf breezes lured him from a life of danger. Its dark undercurrents threatened to destroy him.

After ten years of living life on the edge, it was hard for Doc Ford to get that addiction to danger out of his system. But spending each day watching the sun melt into Dinkins Bay and the moon rise over the mangrove trees, cooking dinner for his beautiful neighbor, and dispensing advice to the locals over a cold beer lulled him into letting his guard down.

Then Rafe Hollins appeared.

How could he refuse his old friend's request-even if it would put him back on the firing line? Even if it would change forever the life he'd built here on Sanibel Island?

Sanibel Flats featuring ex-CIA agent Doc Ford is the first in the series by bestselling author Randy Wayne White.

About this title

About the Author:

Randy Wayne White, author of the Doc Ford novels (Sanibel Flats, The Heat Islands, The Man Who Invented Florida), is a columnist for Outside Magazine, the host of "On the Water," a PBS television series, and a veteran Sanibel Island fishing guide. He lives with his family in Ft. Myers, Florida.

From AudioFile:

Dick Hill breathes new life into White's first Doc Ford adventure, which takes place around 1990. Ford, an ex-CIA agent, is now a marine biologist. He's on a mission to retrieve his friend's son, who's been kidnapped by a Central American general. Add a mixture of gunrunners, stolen artifacts, and a special emerald, and you have the makings of a nonstop thriller. Dick Hill is fully believable as he delivers the numerous Latin accents, and he really puts out the character of Ford's confidant. The story may be 20 years old, but it's definitely worth listening to--even for a second time. A.L.H. © AudioFile 2010, Portland, Maine
