Terror at South Point (eBook, ePUB)

Beschreibung

The State of Maine. Quiet. Laid back. The mecca of many tourists from many of the northeastern cities and states. Some of these people come to Maine for the pristine scenery, the boating, the camping, the seafood, or just to get away from it all. However, for one small Maine community, a few undesirables enter the state with ulterior motives. A mysterious and alarming chain of events start to occur at a small Southern Maine marina during their short summer season. Many of the veteran charter captains at the marina begin to see a pattern in a strange series of events. Serious questions start to emerge when local and federal authorities become involved. When asked, the authorities offer no explanations other than the fact that there is an ongoing investigation. After the terrorist attacks of September 11, 2001, many of the transportation laws and rules were tightened by the federal government. These new rules went into effect for all forms of transportation, including water travel in harbors. Undaunted by these new restrictions and with the help of some key people at both the police department and Coast Guard, the charter captains decide to take matters into their own hands to protect their seaside community and their harbor from what might be a suspected act of terrorism.

Autor

Wayne Tanguay is the son of a 1930s era pilot and federal game warden who patrolled many of the remote areas of Maine. Although raised in the Southern United States, Wayne made yearly visits to relatives living in Southern Maine. A 1969 University of Maine graduate with a degree in biology, he became interested in fresh- and saltwater ecology. Wayne finally relocated from Massachusetts to Maine in 1972. Living very close to the ocean, he purchased his first boat in 1975. Enjoying the ocean, he attained his one-hundred-ton master's license around fifteen years ago and has cruised the Eastern Seaboard from the Montauk, New York, to the coast of Maine. At home on the ocean, he started fishing for lobsters and has held a lobster license since 1990. An avid salt- and freshwater fisherman, he started his own successful charter business around twenty years ago. Many of the stories and events that took place during those years inspired this story.
