But when a cutting-edge surface drone is discovered smuggling drugs through the park’s pristine waters, Hunter is thrust into a deadly game of cat-and-mouse. As the drone’s mysterious operators ramp up their efforts, the trail leads him from the bustling streets of Miami to the serene, but treacherous, waters of the Upper Keys.

With time running out and a cartel operating right under his nose, Hunter must navigate a web of deceit, danger, and high-tech crime to stop an empire from thriving in the backwaters of paradise. Can he expose the cartel before they unleash chaos on the waters he’s sworn to protect?
