Maelstrom: Part III

In Part III Ryan, Tory and Jan return to Massachusetts shattered from their losses. Tory is a mess, Jan is suicidal and Ryan is desperately trying to hold everything together. They form an unlikely alliance with a MA State Trooper named Chris who lost his wife to drug addiction. He's a complicated and lethal character who doesn't seem to care whether he lives or dies but who's determined to avenge his wife's death. Ryan had always been a 'live and let live' kind of guy. Chris is more of a 'kill every last one of the cockroaches' kind of guy and he has the skills, training and means of doing so.After Edward the smuggler makes yet another attempt on their lives Ryan finally realizes that the only way justice is ever going to be served is if he and Chris become waiters and put Edward down, like the rabid dog he is. Tory enters treatment and tries hard to get back into recovery while Ryan and Chris work a dangerous and elaborate plan to start a drug war in Miami and to capture or kill Edward and the drug kingpins he works for. They both put everything on the line and risk death or a lifetime in prison if their plan fails. The plot follows them from New England to Miami and then to the Florida Keys where the story explosively ends. Rip Converse is a licensed sea captain who has made over 20 trips between New England, Bermuda and The Caribbean. He has also run larger ships in the oil fields, charter boats in the Florida Keys and a ferry in Boston Harbor. He's lived aboard a classic wooden sloop in the Caribbean and also cruised in the South Pacific and Mediterranean. He currently resides in Sarasota, FL with his wife and two Black Labradors.
