The Deadly Seas

About this ebook
While people go about their normal lives, an Alaskan-based tsunami storms towards the U.S. West Coast. Based upon the worst tsunami in U.S. history that targeted the continental United States, a sleepy, small town on the Northern California coast – Redwood Bay – lies directly in its strike path. Lives instantly change. Doug Russell is attempting to leave his lucrative marijuana operation for a less deadly, legal business of real estate development. Unfortunately this also lies in the tsunami’s direct path with a woman he’s attracted to, her lover who opposes his plans, an ex-insurance broker, and others being involved. As a predatory mafia boss and a contract killer are also on the loose, nature then plays its unexpected trump card.
Dennis Powers
Dennis Powers started writing in the seventh grade, when his first poem, “Nature’s Sculptor,” was published. His life since then has been devoted to writing, adventure, and the outdoors, although taking a few detours to earn his living. After earning a B.A., J.D., and M.B.A., he first worked for large corporations in financial areas, while he dreamed about another life. Establishing a law practice on the California coast in Santa Barbara, he was a single dad, and began writing poetry, newspaper and magazine articles, fiction, and nonfiction books, earning his keep during the day while writing at night. Deciding that teaching would give him more time to write, he joined the faculty at Southern Oregon University in Ashland, Oregon, to teach business law for nearly fifteen years and recently retired. His non-fiction book, “The Office Romance,” was his publisher’s lead book and he was on a national book tour. After writing ten nonfiction books, Dennis has returned to his first love, which is writing fiction—including a few that came to the proverbial “close, but no cigar” to being published by New York City publishers. He also writes for regional public radio with over 100 stories aired over the last few years. Whether fishing for salmon, white-water kayaking, or wilderness hiking, his interests are with the outdoors—and his writing. Dennis resides in Southern Oregon, with his wife Judy, two cats and libraries of books. Having adventure traveled to over 75 countries, he journeyed to Costa Rica four times, the setting for his fictionalized adventure piece, “The Gold Bugs” at Smashwords.
