Title: Lost at Sea
Review: To describe this book as contrived, meandering, and without connection is to be kind to it. The author must have some purpose in writing it; maybe he was short of cash, had a contract deadline to meet, or was trying to get into the movies. Whatever, it was not to produce a fine work of fiction. Which is just as well because he didn't. I have had it with this type of author (Patricia Cornwell is another who comes to mind) who churn out work that just doesn't justify the expense in reading.
