I just had my scuba thriller Tropical Ice commercially published (Literary Agent Liz Trupin Pulli, Publisher WaterStreet Press) that tackles shark finning, ripping Asian aphrodisiacs from the sea (would you believe seahorses) and is set at Capt. Don's Rum Caye Resort in Belize. It's a page turner. Homer Hickam, who wrote the book and film October Sky staring Jake Gyllenhall says "One of the best adventure thrillers I've ever read and I've read a million. Listen, do you like Clive Cussler novels? Ken Smith is a better writer than old Clive and he's actually lived the life he writes about." bendavisoncover.jpg
It's available on Amazon, many bookstores, or at www.tropicalicethriller.com.

If your serious about diving and environmental issue, you'll be up flipping pages all night.

Any plans for a Nook version?
I'll ask the publisher, since it's not self published so I can't do it. Thanks for asking. I'll let you know

Hi @Ben Davison

Your signed copy is in the mail to me, looking forward to reading it.

Good diving, Craig
Thanks for ordering it. So, far divers have found it quite compelling and there are excellent reviews on Amazon. Lots of diving action, but the real pitch is anti-shark finning, anti-reef raping, and there a romance that goes wanting. If you've been to Belize, you'll recognize it, but it's a darker underbelly than one might expect. Capt Jack, by the way, is modeled after Capt Don, of Bonaire fame, with whom I dived many times.
 
Yep, looks like a good read on my way to LCBR next month :)....orderd from Amazon.
 
Thanks, but that just brings up the paperback version...
You're right. My publisher gave that to me and I didn't check it. I'll try again, but it doesn't seem to be listed as a Nook, though Amazon has it as Kindle
