In the shadowy depths of Southern California's maritime frontiers, Nick Finn and his brother-in-law, Diego Jimenez, serve as the first line of defense against the dark underbelly of international smuggling. As seasoned Marine Interdiction Agents for Customs and Border Protection, their days are spent chasing ghosts on the water—drug runners and human traffickers who navigate the treacherous waters with cunning expertise. But when a routine pursuit of a phantom boat off the Los Angeles coast leads to a grisly discovery and a web of deception, Finn finds himself in uncharted waters. The stakes skyrocket when Diego is brutally murdered, leaving a torrent of questions in his wake. Accused of a crime he didn't commit and fighting to salvage his crumbling marriage, Finn is thrust into an uneasy alliance with Linda Blake, a woman as desperate as she is determined. Together, they embark on a perilous mission that blurs the lines between right and wrong, hunter and hunted. With his career and freedom hanging in the balance, Finn is forced to navigate a perilous course that will test his loyalties, challenge his integrity, and push him to the edge of the abyss. "Devil's Harbor" by Alex Gilly is a riveting thriller that delves into the murky waters of crime and redemption, where survival hinges on the choices of a few, and justice is as elusive as the shifting sea.
