competing dreams, certain that only a few will survive.
Hector “Oso” Moreno is an ex Army Ranger haunted by his
experiences in Somalia. A student of the mysterious Daito Ryu
fighting system, he’s a man who knows how to break things and
shoot people. Working as an enforcer on the wrong side of the
law, Moreno is a leg breaker beginning to feel the pangs of
conscience. He’s looking for a home, but operating on society’s
fringes. He’s a man adrift, looking for a place to belong but wary
of making the commitment needed to do so.
Moreno to be his resident eyes and ears at a new resort on
When his boss, the elegantly sinister Mr. Savarese, sends
Moreno to be his resident eyes and ears at a new resort on
Long Island’s North Fork, it is for two reasons: Moreno does
what he’s told and is capable of great violence when it’s
needed. Both capacities will be tested in ways neither man can
anticipate.
With his arrival in the seemingly placid resort town of Port
Robertson, Moreno begins to believe that he’s leaving his old
life behind and that there might be a place for him in the small
resort community. But he has choices to make: between B.J.
Sullivan, the brash and ambitious new manager of the Port
Robertson Inn and Hana Ishikawa, the sensual adept of the
Daito Ryu system of hand to hand combat.
And when he steps in to investigate the murder of a local lawyer
who had stumbled on a complex real estate swindle, Moreno
comes to realize that he has more choices to make. Everything
is not as it appears in Port Robertson and he will be forced to
choose between doing the right thing and the easy thing. And
no matter his choice, his every action will have deadly
consequences.
