RHUMB LINE BEND

About the Book

The golden tear tenders your greatest wish, but only if you can abide your most appalling fear.

In the prohibition jungles of Jupiter Florida the cowboy toils, struggling to deliver the gangster's rum smuggled in from the islands. Little does he know a treasure lost to the ages will pass through his hands.

Three old friends stumble onto the faded trail when the murder of one of their own draws them onto a path already being pursued by a dark priest and a Jaega prophet. Ancient truths unfold as three hurricanes converge on South Florida. The ghost of no bones is safe as the friends race to prevent a horror that will return Jupiter to its Jaega ancestors.

Join The Krewe of Jupiter, as they fly the rust bucket known as the Lady Orleans into the dark side of the tropics; where the hoary old cypress trees whisper many secrets, and the ultimate truth lies just around the Rhumb Line Bend.
