Gone in a Flash

A complex mystery that blends truth and local lore with the reality of human trafficking and drug cartels in Florida. Initially, readers join a ghost tour and hear the local legends, then quickly shift to a seminar about human trafficking, noting the city's role as an I-95 corridor for the illegal trade. The central conflict involves A. J. Buchanan's investigation, driven by suspicious photographs and instinct, that uncovers a rescue operation run by a DEA agent and his wife, Nicole Mangano, to save children from a violent cartel leader named Orinoco. When the agent is found dead in his rental car outside of St. Augustine, AJ is the prime suspect. As the story progresses, it becomes a high-stakes rescue mission in West Virginia, culminating in a dangerous pursuit, plane crash, and a confrontation with cartel members to secure the safety of a young boy, Christopher, and other trafficked children.
