AUGUSTA REYES WAS DOING JUST FINE, THANK YOU. Supporting two kds and a mother-in-law pulling salvage from the waters off old Connecticut's Gold Coast was no picnic. Most days she came back empty-handed. People came to Hollow Point to escape debt, war, or the law. The Coastal cops didn t ask many questions. And that suited Augusta just fine. The last thing she wanted was questions about her age, past, her scars and where she learned to fight. One day a yacht arrived, owned by a handsome and retired gangster eager to hang up his past and make a new life with someone special that just happens to be Augusta. She can t believe her luck; of all the women in Hollow Point he wants her?Then a salvage crew goes missing near the the quarantined ruins of Strong Island and Augusta s carefully manicured life is about to fall apart.
