Former Navy captain Meredith Reid is living a quiet life, running a charter boat out of Miami, Florida. Business is slow but she can't complain. When Rue Stanton wants to hire Meredith's services and offers a generous charter fee but won't disclose her destination, Meredith is intrigued but skeptical.

Rue's latest quest involves a German U-boat filled with looted art and treasure, and she needs Meredith's help to get to Cancún, Mexico. When a bomb blast interrupts their first meeting, Meredith and Rue begin their journey across the globe-working to stay one step ahead of someone who is obviously looking for the same treasure. And as if things aren't complicated enough, their growing attraction is making it harder and harder for them to keep their eyes on the prize...
Autorenporträt
The author of the classics The Sunne in Golde and Black by Gaslight and the critically acclaimed Flowers of Edo: A Ghost Story, Nene Adams left behind eleven years working in the newspaper and marketing industries in the U.S., to live and work in a small village in the Netherlands with her partner, Dutch artist Corrie Kuipers. Though her fascination with the nineteenth century and earlier times, she finds inspiration in the modern world as well. The Midnight Sun was her first novel with a contemporary setting and reflected her devotion to stories featuring strong, smart women.
