The Sea and the Sand

Fast-paced thriller with a sharp Irish voice, a morally scarred ex-commando father, a rescue at sea, and a trafficking conspiracy closing in from every side.

Sam Ireland pulled three survivors from the sea. Now his daughter is in the crosshairs.

Sam Ireland has built a floating refuge for his daughter, Isla. Life aboard their boat is not perfect, but it is theirs: quiet, isolated, and far from the blood he has already spilled.

Then Sam drags three people from the Mediterranean, and an act of mercy turns into something far darker. A woman and child are running from powerful men. A trafficker is hiding in plain sight. And every answer points to a brutal network of corrupt officials, stolen lives, and bodies treated as currency.

Sam knows he should walk away.

He won't.

But the deeper he pushes, the closer danger comes to Isla, and the sea that felt like freedom becomes another battlefield.
The Sea and the Sand is the gripping second book in the Sam Ireland series — a fast-paced international thriller with hard-hitting action, cleverly interwoven storylines, and a fierce father-daughter bond at its core. Perfect for readers who want Reacher-style justice with more heart, or Andy McNab with real emotional weight.
