Coastal Curse - Paperback

In Coastal Curse, Sandy Morgan, a bestselling novelist, decides to return to Mallard Cove Marina for a much-needed break from the hustle and bustle of the literary world. With him, he brings a new companion who has an intriguing family tree. However, Sandy's idyllic retreat is disrupted when he realizes that he has a stalker who's been obsessively tracking his every move.

The stalker's presence becomes more and more creepy, leaving Sandy feeling somewhat trapped as he prepares for an upcoming reader and writer cruise to Bermuda. The cruise promises to be a dream vacation for many, but for Sandy, it's about to become six hundred miles of open ocean with nowhere to hide. Before he leaves, though, Sandy is given some cryptic words of advice and a protective gris-gris amulet from a mysterious Haitian voodoo priestess. With the threat from the stalker growing, Sandy hangs onto this talisman in his bid to stay safe. Some of the cruise passengers may not make it back alive, and Sandy is determined not to be one of them.

Coastal Curse weaves together elements of a thriller, a mystery, and the supernatural, creating a gripping narrative that will keep you guessing with each turning page. Will Sandy manage to outwit his stalker and survive the perilous cruise to Bermuda, or will he become the next victim in this high-stakes game of cat and mouse?

Coastal Curse is the eighth installment in Don Rich's bestselling Coastal Adventure Series, but it can also be read as a standalone novel.
