Description

Christian Roberts, a handsome, young Floridian, has retired from horse racing and sets off with his wife, Allie, to cruise the Caribbean on his new sloop. Tragedy strikes, ending the dream vacation, and Christian becomes the prime suspect in a murder.

Shattered and guilt ridden, Christian believes his actions caused the death, and suicide lurks in his thoughts, a way to end his pain, but he can't act on the impulse, at least not yet. He must first honor her dying request: "Save the sharks. Do it for me."

Christian embraces the impossible task of stopping the slaughter of sharks for shark fin soup. Under the alias of Captain Nemo, he becomes an eco-terrorist while a suspicious FBI agent dogs his every move. Will Christian be caught and imprisoned? Will the fin traders kill him? Could despair win out, causing him to take his own life? Or will Christian succeed and save the sharks?

Advance Praise

“Christian is just a beach bum happy with his life and his new wife, until circumstances turn him into a murderer, bomber, and crusader to save the sharks. I couldn’t help loving him and hoping he wins. You’ll love him too. Klaus builds stories and characters that come to life and stay alive in your memory and your dreams.”

—Bobbie Christmas, author of Write In Style

"Blond and good looking, Christian Roberts seems to make a habit of avenging the last wishes of loved ones. He did it in Secretariat Reborn. He does it again in Shark Fin Soup, the second thriller by Susan Klaus. This time he takes on the killing of millions of sharks for shark fin soup, a practice that threatens the balance of nature. Fin traders would kill him. Agents of the law would imprison him. Women love him. Ecology-minded folks applaud him.
Readers have a new super hero. Susan Klaus is one of the most creative story tellers to surface since Ian Fleming, David Baldacci and Michael Crichton,
