What you need to know before your trail

Homeland Security agent, Kit Steel, is committed to avenge terrorism. And she’s after the blood of her nemesis, one of world’s most ruthless and dangerous criminals, Vincente Carpio. He has the blood of her husband and young son on his hands. He also has aid and influence on the outside, and he’s waiting for the perfect moment when the final pieces of the jigsaw fall into place.

Harbour Union chief, Cormack McConnel controls everything that happens on Boston’s waterfront. However, someone wants him out of the way, fast.

Everyone has a game to play until it becomes apparent that there are much darker, far-reaching forces of evil at work which look to be preparing for the international stage.

Travel Guide

Travel to Boston Booktrail style

Well, this is a gritty and raw view of the city! A city known for its tea party – but there’s no such niceties as a tea party here. The only thing someone is drinking is the water in the harbour as they lie dead, submerged in its murky depths.

The deserted areas of the city are perfect for this thriller:

“The pier ran along the edge of the harbor, in what was known as the Seaport District. It was  a patchwork of high-end developments at the edge of South Boston, just across Fort Point Channel from the Financial District and Downtown. Five years before it has been a wasteland of warehouses and parking lots, but now it was the hottest growth area in the city.”

“It was a perfect hunting ground.”
