When a woman's body washes up near Deception Pass Bridge on Whidbey Island, it looks like suicide. Brad Haraldsen, her long-ago lover, isn't so sure.

That conflict continues today. In this combination volume of two mysteries, Final Deception and Final Passage, the quest to bring Bella's murderers to justice continues on the Alaska Ferry. Brad and his adventurous wife, Irene, and detective-partner Shane Lindstrom, pursue their suspects north on the Inside Passage and then back again to Puget Sound, where the villains' luck finally runs out in a secret compound in the San Juan Islands..These page-turning thrillers take readers on a fast-paced journey to out-of-the-way places.
