Produktbeschreibung
Tracey Foley leads an adventurous, suspenseful life, smuggling marijuana to the USA. The trails and tribulations of this dangerous and challenging lifestyle include attacks by pirates intent on killing and looting what they could. Shootouts, threatening to ram the attacking boat, the thrill of the chase and hope of the winds and seas picking up. One danger over, the next was the weather being typhoon season. Every risky day was forgotten when Mother Nature demonstrated its beauty in the calm, serene sailing days with albatrosses, dolphins, humpbacks and killer whales and playful sea otters. Hearts were in mouth when making landfall to offload, the coastguard being a smuggler's snare. Read about the ingenious diversion plan and missions accomplished. Also, all hope was with the off-loaders making the rendezvous, escaping detection so the mother load made it safely. Many, many what ifs. Payday was also another risk. Will they be able to smuggle luggage loads of $100 greenbacks safely offshore or be intercepted? Job completed or 25 years in jail? A Smuggler's Snare.
Autorenporträt
The author is a 60-year-old widow who resides in a beachside resort in Australia. Since she was born, her family lived a nomadic existence, moving to a new location every year. Whilst completing her H.S.C, majority in English, she also worked whenever she could, saving enough to travel and work at the fruit picking locations throughout Australia. 'Itchy feet again, and always!' She met her seaman husband and began working and travelling on the ocean. After 18 years all up, chartering and delivering in yachts before purchasing their own to sail the seven seas with her two babies, her passion for story telling developed in later years with plenty of amassed material to utilise and incorporate.
