It has been a little over a year since Jeni abandoned her career as an attorney outside New Orleans to accompany her husband, Zach, to Romania. While he has been settling into his new role as a diplomat with the Department of Justice, she has been embracing all the excitement and fun of being a new American expat in Europe. But all of that is about to change when her impulsive college-age niece, Candi, unexpectedly comes to stay with them. As soon as Candi arrives, the drama begins. The situation, although awkward, is manageable-until Candi disappears shortly after a young woman is found dead in a neighboring park. Against her husband's advice, Jeni dons her amateur sleuthing cap and boards a yacht in the Adriatic in the middle of Yacht Week to delve into the seemingly sinister disappearance while following sketchy clues. But as she races against time to hopefully find and safely extract Candi from a potentially dangerous situation, Jeni has no idea if her plan will end in mutiny or even worse, murder. Adriatic Allure shares the roily adventure of an American expat turned sleuth as she sets out on a fast-paced search to find her niece after she is lured into the murky waters of international yachting.
Autorenporträt
¬¬Jane Golden is an avid sailor and lifelong boating enthusiast. She is also a hopeless romantic when it comes to sailing and sailors. In fact, she met her husband sailing from Destin, Florida, to Key West and raised two sons and a daughter, all of whom are excellent sailors in their own right.As a serial sailboat owner, racer, cruiser, and unpaid crewmember on friends' boats, she accumulated a wealth of knowledge to convey to women who wish to sail but find it a daunting task given their busy lives. She knows there is no requirement to leave everything and everyone behind, and circumnavigate the globe in order to discover the joy of sailing. Whether on a trip near-shore or far, small vessel or large, all sailors get the same rush of adrenaline when they gather the confidence to drop the dock lines.
