The Night Ferry forces the reader to take a long, hard look at the evil that walks among us–and it allows us to hope for better. You love the good guys and root for them and you despise the bad guys and hope they go down hard. It’s fast paced, the plot sizzles and the characters are well-drawn. They find human embryos, forced prostitution, human trafficking, and dangerous people who will stop at nothing to accomplish their evil goals. Motivated by Cate’s death request and a startling revelation about Cate’s pregnancy, Alisha, with the help of retired Inspector Vincent Ruiz, follow the clues about Cate’s baby to Amsterdam. Before a very pregnant Cate dies, she manages to whisper to Alisha that someone is trying to take her baby and she begs her old friend to stop them. The women have little chance to talk before a speeding car darts out of nowhere and runs down Cate and her husband. Wanting to put right their relationship, Alisha goes to the reunion. When she finally is able to report for duty, she learns she’s going to be ‘tucked’ away in a nothing job–and she’s not willing to do that.Īlisha receives a cryptic note from her estranged childhood best friend, Cate, imploring her to meet her at the women’s high school reunion. She’s recovering from a serious back injury (occurred in Lost) that has sidelined her for almost a year, nearly preventing her from returning to work.
