“Only a couple reasons explain why we’re doing this,” Lennox said, lowering his voice.
“Of course,” Keane said. “It’s got to be the daughter or niece or nephew to somebody pretty high up the line.”
“An admiral,” Lennox said. “His daughter and her friend.”
“Has he been looking personally?”
“No. He’s out on the Baltic Sea, but he’s been calling in every favor he could.”
“And so a special black-ops mission team of two is to go out into Puget Sound, and possibly beyond into the Pacific Ocean, and look for them?”
“Yes,” Lennox replied.
Just then Keane’s phone buzzed in his pocket, and he pulled it out to see Nico was calling. Keane lifted the phone to his ear. “Hope you have a better explanation as to why I’m supposed to look for two bodies,” Keane snapped.
“So Lennox already told you about the admiral’s daughter?”
“Absolutely, but what does this have to do with us? What’s wrong with search and rescue, the coast guard or a private recovery company?”
“Because,” he said, “they went missing from the same area where two other people went missing just one week ago. Both pairs somewhere in the same area. Plus, we received a distress call from one of those first two who went missing, saying they’d been captured.”
Keane slowly straightened. “Captured?”
“Yes,” Nico said briskly. “Bodies showed up a few days later, both shot. So we don’t know exactly what the hell we’ve got going on here.”
This concludes Book 8 of The Mavericks: Nico.

The Mavericks: Keane (Book #9)
What happens when the very men—trained to make the hard decisions—come up against the rules and regulations that hold them back from doing what needs to be done? They either stay and work within the constraints given to them or they walk away. Only now, for a select few, they have another option:
The Mavericks. A covert black ops team that steps up and break all the rules … but gets the job done.
Welcome to a new military romance series by USA Today best-selling author Dale Mayer. A series where you meet new friends and just might get to meet old ones too in this raw and compelling look at the men who keep us safe every day from the darkness where they operate—and live—in the shadows … until someone special helps them step into the light.
Heading out on a last-ditch rescue mission to Puget Sound one day after two women go overboard in a sailing accident isn’t exactly what he’d expected …
But Keane is nothing if not adaptable. He can only hope the two women are alive and doing everything they can to stay that way. Hearing from the local coast guard that more may be involved than just a rescue mission, he and his partner load up and head out to search the waters around the smaller islands off the coast. They have the GPS of the missing women’s last-known location, but storms could have sent them anywhere …
Lost, alone—except for her best friend, who’s unconscious with a head wound—Sandrine wakes up in a small shelter to find they are locked in. When the door is finally opened, an armed stranger dressed in fatigues dumps a small amount of food and says they are on their own.
Finding the women was one thing, keeping them safe something else again. More is going on in this small island that any of them were expecting … or had planned for …
