The instant Chris Mark heard the scream he knew something was very
wrong. At the edge of a narrow chasm a woman was backing away from
something. Her dog strained at its leash. Mark took his hands from
his pockets, broke into a run. The woman saw him and pointed. The
dog pulled excitedly, trying to get close to whatever was down
there. Mark approached the crevice and looked down. On the rocks
ten feet below him a man lay on his back. He was clad in jeans and
a sweatshirt. While the body was in bad shape - bloated and
discolored - the waxy face still had its nose and ears, and the two
bluish hands were at the ends of the arms. The limbs and small bits
had not yet been devoured by predators. "I'm sorry that I screamed
like that," stuttered the woman. "I just looked down and there he
was. What do you suppose happened?" Mark shrugged. "The ocean can
take you any which way." "The Body on the Rocks" presents twelve
thrilling stories featuring detective Chris Mark. Set in the rugged
port city of Gloucester, Massachusetts, each story offers human
drama, passion, intrigue, and a glimpse into the complicated life
of an Iraq War vet who only wants to help people solve their
toughest problems. This fast-paced collection is perfect for a day
at the beach or an evening by the fireplace, and will keep you
turning the pages long past your bedtime.
