The Dead Season — Createspace

HIS BEST BUDDY IS KILLED IN ACTION and Charley Ridgway has only the man's knife to remind him of their friendship. Now the knife has been stolen by a beautiful young woman connected to a violent murder, and the former soldier wants the weapon back. Hot on the trail of the thief, Charley's die-hard principles propel him through underworld intrigues, police troubles, and into the arms of the girl's seductive mother. Sequel to Anthony Pignataro's SMALL ISLAND, the action-packed Maui novel that first introduced readers to the savvy resort bartender, THE DEAD SEASON likewise presents surprising glimpses of the island paradise … a darker side seldom known to vacationers and other outsiders.
