Stewart Butterfield: "Perfect vacation thriller"

Book Synopsis

"Devil's Harbor" by Alex Gilly is an intense and gripping thriller that takes readers on a mesmerizing journey into the dangerous world of drug smuggling and dark secrets.

At the heart of the story is Nick Finn, a former San Francisco cop turned salvage diver, who is struggling to rebuild his life after a tragic accident. When a wealthy and influential family approaches him with a lucrative job offer - recovering a sunken cargo vessel rumored to be filled with narcotics - Nick can't resist the temptation, even though he suspects there's more to the story than meets the eye.

As Nick and his team prepare for the treacherous dive into the depths of the Pacific Ocean, tensions rise when they discover a horrifying secret onboard the sunken ship. They are soon caught in a deadly game of cat and mouse, pursued by ruthless drug dealers who will stop at nothing to protect their illicit cargo.

As the action intensifies and the body count rises, Nick must navigate a web of lies, betrayal, and corruption to stay one step ahead of the dangerous men who want him dead. Along the way, he forms an unlikely alliance with a mysterious woman, adding another layer of complexity to an already intricate plot.

Set against the backdrop of San Francisco's haunting and picturesque shoreline, "Devil's Harbor" delivers a pulse-pounding narrative that keeps readers on the edge of their seats until the electrifying and surprising climax.

With crisp prose, well-drawn characters, and a relentless pace, Alex Gilly crafts a gripping and atmospheric thriller that explores themes of redemption, greed, and the dark underbelly of human nature. "Devil's Harbor" is a thrilling page-turner that will leave readers breathless and hungry for more.
