Nicholas Harvey is quite an interesting bloke. He was raised in England, working in America, and is heading back to Grand Cayman. Motorsports dominated his early career as a driver, crew member, and finally, as a senior manager at the top level of racing in the States. Then he switched it up, becoming an author of adventure books set in the Cayman Islands. His debut novel, Twelve Mile Bank, the first of the AJ Bailey adventure series, combines a passion for diving, an obsession with military history, and a love of the Cayman Islands.
Cayman Islands divemaster AJ Bailey is searching for a long-forgotten WWII U-boat at the bottom of the Caribbean Sea. Armed with little more than an adventurous spirit and her late grandfather’s tale, she’s determined to find the submarine and the secret it protects.
Interestingly, AJ Bailey’s breakthrough clue came from some old charts that a local fisherman kept for recording his secret fishing areas, or “Honey Holes.” AJ noticed that the places the fisherman marked should not be great for fishing because they were far off the bank, and the structure was down very deep. She concluded the charts must be wrong.
When a wealthy treasure hunter shows up with a ruthless crew, AJ becomes entangled in a frantic duel to find the precious piece of history. Diving into the path of merciless killers at treacherous depths, she must fight to keep her grandfather’s dream – and herself – alive.
Weaving between 1945 and the current time, Twelve Mile Bank blends an intriguing historical tale with thrilling modern suspense in book one of the AJ Bailey Adventure series.
