It was supposed to be simple. Outer Banks crime writer Harrison Weaver has been asked to find a young woman who failed to return from a party. But when her fully clothed body washes up on the beach and three other young women disappear, he realizes nothing is simple at all. Can it be human trafficking? Here on the Outer Banks? The deeper Harrison delves into the mystery, the more dangerous the investigation becomes. In his work as a crime writer, Harrison has seen the darker side of human nature, but when an informant is assassinated, it becomes clear that this is like nothing he has come across before. Tentacles of evil spread wider and wider, weaving a deadly web that threatens everyone involved. It’s going to take skill–and luck–for Harrison and those close to him to escape death at the hands of those who turn dreams of summer into deadly evil. (#7 in the series)
