    About The Cry of the Halidon

    Alex McAuliff has received an offer he can’t refuse: two million dollars for a geological survey of Jamaica. All Dunstone Limited requires is his time, his expertise, and his absolute secrecy. No one—not even McAuliff’s handpicked team—can know of Dunstone’s involvement. But British Intelligence is aware of the deal, and they’ve let Alex in on a secret of their own: The last survey team Dunstone dispatched to Jamaica vanished without a trace. Now it’s too late to turn back. Alex already knows about Dunstone—which means he knows too much. From the moment he lands in Jamaica, Alex is a marked man. On an island paradise where a beautiful woman might be a spy and every move could be his last, Alex’s only clue to survival is a single mysterious word: Halidon.

    About The Cry of the Halidon

    When Dunstone, Ltd., offers Alex McAuliff, a geologist, $2 million to survey Jamaica’s dark interior, there’s a catch: no one can know Dunstone’s involved. But British Intelligence finds out and warns Alex that the last survey team Dunstone dispatched vanished without a trace.

    Now Alex knows too much, and he’s a marked man from the moment he lands in Jamaica. But who wants him dead? Dunstone? A rival company? British Intelligence? In this island paradise, a beautiful woman might be a spy and Alex’s only clue to survival is a single mysterious word: Halidon.
