South Pacific Cut

<p>Justice doesn't stop at blue water.</p><p></p><p>At night the ocean bleeds.</p><p>By morning sharks wash up without their fins.</p><p>And a village that once lived in harmony with the sea now looks the other way.</p><p></p><p>Leilani is a champion freediver and marine biologist now working for the Ocean</p><p>Enforcement Agency. Sent to the islands of Samoa she expects illegal fishing. What she uncovers instead</p><p>is a silent industrial-scale slaughter unfolding beyond pristine coral reefs.</p><p></p><p>Offshore foreign longliners take shark after shark until dawn on miles of line. </p><p>Fins vanish into international markets. Onshore money floods into quiet villages eroding tradition and</p><p>binding locals into a trade with no exit.</p><p></p><p>Working with chiefs and navigating shifting allegiances Leilani races to expose a</p><p>black market fed by global demand. But every dive draws attention. Every</p><p>question tightens the net.</p><p></p><p>Because this industry protects itself and it doesn't leave witnesses.</p><p></p><p>With cyclone season approaching can Leilani expose the operation before she becomes the</p><p>next victim of the nylon lines?</p><p></p><p>South Pacific Cut is an international crime thriller set in the South Pacific where predators</p><p>hunt above and below the surface.</p><p></p><p>A percentage of royalties from the book is donated to ocean conservation efforts.
