Chasing midnight. Cover Image Large Print Book

Chasing midnight. [large print] Randy Wayne White.

White, Randy Wayne. (Author).

Summary:

It began peacefully enough, on one of Florida's private islands. At a reception hosted by a notorious Russian black marketeer, Doc Ford uses darkness, and his friend Tomlinson, as cover to get an underwater look at the billionaire's yacht. But by the time Ford surfaces, everything has changed. Someone has taken over control of the island, but who? Thugs hired by the Russian's competitors? Environmental extremists? It's hard to tell with so many enemies in one place. Whatever the motive, they have herded everyone together and threatened to kill one hostage every hour until midnight unless their demands are met, at which point they will just blow everybody up. Electronic jammers make communications with the outside world impossible. The only hope of avoiding terrible consequences is Doc Ford. The militants don't know Ford's capabilities, but they know that a loose man is dangerous to their plan. They'll make sure that situation won't last for long, and Ford knows the clock is ticking.
