Tropical Heat "Bill Craig's Marlow Key West series is as entertaining as it is suspenseful with seasoned characters in and around Florida's southernmost point...a tropic archipelago." -Dick Wall, Editor. When a beloved Key West officer is found murdered on the shore-and the crime echoes the slaying of the investigator's girlfriend-ex¿NYPD detective Rick Marlow must dive back into the island's dark underbelly. Chasing an informant's clue leads him into a conspiracy of a stylish fixer, a militia with lethal ambitions, and El Cuchillo-the patient killer who makes death personal. Blood Hunt is a taut, cinematic thriller: maritime chases, bridge standoffs, and a hard¿bitten hero racing to stop a weaponized shipment before paradise becomes a battleground. Bill Craig is the best-selling author of more than 60 novels spread across the genres from mystery to pulp to science fiction to Westerns. Bill is best known for his Marlow Key West mysteries and his Mitch Cooper mysteries. Bill often likes to say that it only took him 34 years to become an overnight success. And when introducing himself, he adds that he kills people for a living, much like the fictional Rick Castle on television.
