Title: Worth A Shot
Product review: I was hoping that this book would finaly promote the Coast Guard in a deserving and exciting light, but unfortunately I was let down. Being an active Coastie on a 210', I was thrilled to see a Coast Guard fiction book on the shelves. After forcing myself to read it however, I became very disapointed in the obvious lack of research performed by Mr. Hutton, which I need not reproduce, as many other of these reviews have already stated them. It was a well enough story in itself, although there were few areas where I felt "caught by the action". I have kept the book only because I am an avid Coastie, but if you can mind the multitude of factual mistakes and sometimes slow plot advance, then this book may be worth a try.
