Thriller
Aiden Page wanted only to escape. The CFO of a bank deep in
debt and under investigation by the Department of Justice,
Aiden saw his chance and took it, leaving behind his
family, his creditors, and his persecutors by convincing
them of his death. He succeeds in his deception until one
night when, tortured by guilt and loneliness, he places a
call to his teenage daughter, Morgan. He only utters a
single word, but like a solitary ripple spreading across
the water, it is enough to convince Morgan that her father
is still alive. Determined to be reunited with her father and confident
that she knows where he might be going, Morgan sets out on
an ambitious and dangerous journey to a small Pacific
island. With little money, no driver's license, and no
passport, Morgan attempts to reach her destination by
sailboat, prepared to fight through hostile waters, and
hostile men, if it means finding her father. But Morgan isn't the only one searching for Aiden. The same
people who engineered his company's collapse know that he
is the only man who can uncover a conspiracy that could
destroy far more than one bank or a single life. The group
is unconstrained by morality, undeterred by mercy, and it
will do anything in its power, including using Morgan as a
pawn, if it ensures that Aiden Page remains a corpse. Now
Aiden must solve the mystery behind his exile if he hopes
to save not just his own life but his daughter's as well.
Before his race is over, he will discover that thousands of
lives may depend upon the actions of a dead man.
