SYV BUZZ RECOMMENDS
   
Praise for Dead Reckoning

Local history comes alive.

“A captivating maritime story, both subtle and dramatic.”
Kirkus Reviews

“A brisk and bracing read.”
—Glen Starkey, New Times San Luis Obispo

“Enjoy this book before it hits the silver screen. With a story so compelling and cinematic, populated with irresistible characters, it’s destined to become a major motion picture.”
—Terry Rossio, screenwriter, Pirates of the Caribbean
