In Coastal Cruise, Captain Bill "Baloney" Cooper agrees to help his niece by taking charge of her boss's old Chris Craft boat for a company "booze cruise" departing from Mallard Cove Marina on Virginia's Eastern Shore. Little did he know that what seemed like a simple favor would soon put not only his life but also the lives of those aboard that boat in grave danger. Is the danger linked to a Hatteras yacht from Nassau, owned by a curious inventor, or maybe it has something to do with an old Chesapeake buyboat and its suspicious crew? Regardless of its origin, Baloney's life is about to be irrevocably and forever changed, provided he can survive the looming threat. One of his loved ones won't be so lucky...

Coastal Cruise, this eleventh installment of the best-selling Coastal Adventure Series by Don Rich, can be enjoyed as part of the series or as a stand-alone novel.
