The Elgin Deceptions
Almost a hundred years ago, a major terrestrial event reshaped the earth's coastlines. Goodbye entire cities. Goodbye entire states. Goodbye entire countries. And when the authorities outlawed salvaging from these sunken sites, why say hello to a new breed of criminal: underwater reclamation specialists. Even a hundred years later, there's still a whole lot of loot for the reclaiming.

After the wake of dead bodies left in the Seattle Isles, Isa and Puo retreat to Europe to gain some distance while things settle down. But even on another continent, the Ghost of Winn haunts Isa everywhere she goes. And to make matters worse, Puo won't shut up about it.

Determined to prove nothing's wrong, Isa accepts their biggest job yet from a mysterious employer with deep pockets. The employer's only condition: the inclusion of Liáng, an attractive, well-muscled operative to be embedded with their team.

As the gravity of what Isa took on weighs on them, they learn more about this mysterious employer and that failure isn't an option-not with the kind of bill they're racking up. Meanwhile, the authorities are closing in as Isa's crew isn't getting any closer to pulling off their job.

With options dwindling, it's time to try something stupid and reckless-the Ghost of Winn be damned.
