The book opens with a young boy waking up to a smoke-filled room.
He arouses his father, who quickly vacates the burning house with
his wife and two children. The family of five that resided on the

fire is caused by arson, which is covered up by local authorities.

special task force, headed up by a famous safety director, to
uncover a corrupt police force and notorious crime ring in his
town. The mob puts out a contract with a heartless hit man to kill
Gianini who escapes through help from his wife. The book follows an
undercover sting that reveals the connection between the capo of
the local crime ring and a depraved police lieutenant who was
instrumental in the arson.
In the late 1930s, Rosie Connor is a young female daredevil pilot,
and her hero is the famous pilot Amelia Earhart. Several years
after Earhart disappears during a flight across the Pacific, Rosie
and her husband Chris try to complete her unfinished flight.
Unfortunately, they find themselves recreating the journey too
accurately, as they also crash into the Pacific. They are
eventually rescued by the crew of a Japanese ship; however, it is
only after they have boarded the ship that they realize they are
not guests but prisoners. The year is 1941, and they are treated
brutally in the months leading up to the infamous battle at Pearl
Harbor. As Rosie and Chris deal with peril and adventure on an
island occupied by the Japanese, World War II becomes a larger
threat to the world. Follow the adventure of a lifetime, and see
the world through the eyes of a pilot whose bravery knows no
bounds, who lives a life of adventure and risk-taking.
Captain Kent Allison and his beautiful wife, Teddi, are owners of
the Sea Rose, a long-time fishing boat sailing in the South
Pacific. Their adventure starts when they are hijacked by the
notorious pirate Captain Armond Yang. Several anxious days later,
they escape with their two Polynesian crew members and sail to an
island in a sailing dinghy. They find tranquility on this island,
but are anxious to get their boat back. They discover that the
Australian Navy can assist them in recovering their boat and Kent
sets out on a new adventure to accomplish this.
After several years of commercial fishing, they leave their
boat with their faithful crew and realize their dream to buy a
sailboat and sail the world. But they're thwarted by a group of
devious scientists who kidnap Teddi and want to perform inhuman
experiments on her and other women. Kent's rescue of Teddi involves
more suspense and action. Awash in Mystery is a gripping tale of
adventure on the high seas and tranquil times on a South Sea Island
and later in the Caribbean.
Tony Marino has reached a crossroads in life. With high school
commencement just two weeks away, Marino is definitely ready to
explore the world that lies outside Cleveland, Ohio. But times are
tough in 1949, leaving Marino only one viable option-to join the
navy. As he enlists, he has no idea that the Korean War is about to
break out. Soon after his ship is assigned to action in Korea,
Marino is sent on an undercover mission with two shipmates, Sully
and Peacock, to provide valuable information to General MacArthur,
who is planning an invasion of Inchon. As his mission increases in
intensity, Marino and his shipmates bravely face great danger as
they scout out three islands, gather critical information, and
finally return safely to the ship. But as the war progresses, it is
not long before their ship is assigned to help in the evacuation of
Hungnam in North Korea-a fateful decision that leads Marino and
Sully to imprisonment in a clandestine hospital known for its
inhumane experiments. In this military thriller loosely based on
real-life events, two American sailors must rely on the CIA and a
beautiful Korean girl to escape-before it is too late.
