Summary: Non-Stop Adventure, Scuba Diving, and Beautiful Bahamas!
Review: Just got finished with this book(5/99). It's was great. It's was spell binding until the last page! Descriptions of the islands, under water, boats, people, and the action made you feel you were right there. Excellent book! Personally, I'm going to buy his other "Blue" books...

Summary: A Solid Maritime Thriller
Review: Salvage diver Lyle "Tiller" Galloway just wants to forget the days when he smuggled drugs for a ruthless criminal known as "The Baptist." His former boss wants him back, however, this time for a dangerous salvage operation that will make Galloway rich if he lives through it. It's a well-used plot, but Poyer makes it work by paying attention to the details. The underwater scenes are excellent (as always), the descriptions of the Bahamas are vivid, and the wealth of technical details about diving and salvage work never slow the plot down. Best of all, unlike _Hatteras Blue_, the big plot twist that Poyer springs near the end of the story makes sense and ties together a lot of seemingly loose ends. Galloway is still a likable character, still wishing he could shake off the past and still unable to do it. As maritime thrillers go, _Bahamas Blue_ isn't quite up to the standards set by Sam Llewellyn, Hammond Innes, and Brian Callison, but its a solid piece of work and an excellent choice for fans of the genre.
