COLD BLOOD, HOT SEA
A Mara Tusconi Mystery
When a colleague is killed aboard the research vessel Intrepid, oceanographer Mara Tusconi believes it’s no accident. As she investigates, Mara becomes entangled in a scheme involving powerful energy executives with much to lose if her department colleagues continue their climate change research. Mara’s career—and life—is on the line, threatened by intrigue as big and dark as the ocean.
“Sleuths will have to figure out who done it, but the real crime is the backdrop here: the endless heating of a fragile planet.”
