About this ebook
Will a war heroine turned activist drown in a Long Island wetland? Delve into her psyche as she weighs her choice to care against her need to belong.
Book 1: A Fado for the River
Caught up in the chaos as the Portuguese revolution raged in Mozambique, Gida fled the three warring factions that wanted her secret. Escaping from the secret police, she fell in love with a foreign student, but their ideas of freedom tore them apart. Years slip by, then a singer reveals his deepest secret buried in the mournful lyric of a fado--the traditional Portuguese song form. Now blackmailed, this American executive won't stop searching for the spy whose death he faked. (Gida reappears in Book Three, The Drowning Bay.)
Book 2: Atone for the Ivory Cloud
When cybercriminals steal her music compositions, the FBI tells her they are using her website to trade ivory on the dark web. Her quest to win back her freedom takes her from Manhattan to a poisoned elephant waterhole in Tanzania, and ultimately to a prison in upstate New York.
Book 3: The Drowning Bay
Allison returns in this book after serving time, but her freedom hinges on keeping a secret from an adopted refugee boy--Gida's adopted son. Gida (from Book 1), the unsung heroine of Mozambique's war of liberation, is now an environmental activist—and is missing. With the hacking skills that sent her to prison Allison discovers the activist's unpublished blog. Gida is never coming home. Will Allison risk her freedom to belong?

"The Drowning Bay is ambrosia for fans of Geoffrey Wells's blue-ribbon ecosuspense trilogy. This exhilarating final installment brings together the major players in an intriguing new setting, the semirural east end of Long Island, which is depicted with such skill and affection that it feels like a living, breathing character. The story takes the reader deep into Allison's psyche while exploring issues of conservation, ethics, and conflicting responsibilities. I'm eager to see what future projects Mr. Wells has in store for his readers."— Pamela Burford, best-selling author of Undertaking Irene
