The Gray and Languid Grave

Reese’s kin are missing. During a desperate call from her biological father, Mason McCay, Theresa learns of the sudden disappearance of the Chancellors – her sister’s family, Jackie, Dan and the kids.

While not officially listed as overdue, and with no police involvement pending, Reese and McCay are frantic to find some trace, any trace, of their family where none seems to exist.

Trapped in a scam as deadly as any conceived on the high seas, Reese battles modern piracy with a twist. Facing men of no conscience and fewer scruples, she and McCay run a rig of desperate survival, from which there may be no escape and little promise beyond eternity in the deep.
