Florida, Summer 1980. Jack Kendall is a seasoned reporter grappling with shock after witnessing a suicide while covering a story. He returns home and finds his wife, Becky, has vanished, leaving only a cryptic letter and more questions than answers.
As Jack digs into her disappearance, his reporter's instincts take over. What begins as a personal search quickly becomes something far more dangerous. Becky's secret life is tied to a powerful international cocaine trafficking network operating out of Florida-and stretching deep into the jungles and mountains of Jamaica.
Mountain Crossing delivers a tightly paced, immersive mystery featuring Jack Kendall, a man trained to uncover the truth even when it threatens to destroy him. After surviving an assassination attempt, Jack follows the trail to Jamaica's Blue Mountains, where rival drug gangs, CIA operatives, and a ruthless kingpin are closing in.
Guiding him forward is a series of haunting, prophetic dreams-visions of a mountain crossing, armed soldiers, and a mysterious young woman dressed in white. As Jack pursues the physical evidence across Florida and Jamaica, the meaning of these dreams slowly emerges, unfolding on a second, symbolic level that blurs the line between intuition and obsession.
There, Jack joins forces with unlikely allies as he races toward a violent showdown at a mountaintop fortress-one that will decide Becky's fate and forever change his own.
