HATTERAS BLUE - David Poyer

USA Today-bestselling author David Poyer writes gripping undersea thrillers in the tradition of Clive Cussler and John D. MacDonald. On a moonless night in March, 1945, a Coast Guard destroyer sank a German U-Boat fifty miles off Hatteras Island, the Graveyard of the Atlantic. Now, decades later, the mummified corpses of three of its crewmen, wrapped in a decaying rubber raft, come to light during the excavation for a new shopping development. Their reappearance unleashes a tide of powerful forces . . . neo-Nazis with a ruthless plan to corner the South American drug market, an Israeli intelligence operative, and a shadowy, wealthy "historian" with his own, even more dangerous plan.

When Hatteras native, ex-Coast Guard salvage diver, and ex-con Lyle "Tiller" Galloway III starts digging into the discovery, he's forced by a black island family cheated of their beachfront land to take on a dangerous silent partner. Together, he and Shadrach Aydlett will track down what actually happened in the Carolina sand hills so long before, and what everyone's really after . . . tons of long-lost Nazi gold. And finally,face down a ruthless killer in a gut-wrenching battle that climaxes hundreds of feet beneath the surface.

Taut with vividly-told diving scenes, and delving deep into the rich lore and oral traditions of the Outer Banks, HATTERAS BLUE's rare original hardcover edition sells for over a hundred dollars. This new ebook edition has been revised and updated by the author to make it even more fast-paced, exciting, and authentic. It leads off the five novels in the Galloway series: HATTERAS BLUE, BAHAMAS BLUE, LOUISIANA BLUE, DOWN TO A SUNLESS SEA, and YUCATAN BLUE.
