    Cutter Kauai Sea Adventures Series

    Written by Edward Hochsmann

    Narrated by Digital Voice Matt G

    About this series

    This audiobook is narrated by a digital voice.

    The volcano mission was only supposed to be a cover story!

    In “Indies Inferno,” join the crew of the small Coast Guard cutter Kauai as they embark on an exhilarating sea adventure. Tasked with a covert intelligence operation, their mission takes an unexpected turn when a volcanic eruption rocks the shores of the picturesque Caribbean island of Saint Ignatius.

    The story opens with a routine screening mission which turns deadly when the crew stumbles upon an eco-terrorist plot to attack an oil tanker. After arresting the would-be terrorists, Kauai’s crew is assigned to a covert mission supporting a DIA operation in the Caribbean. Their cover is a geological survey mission on the beautiful island of Saint Ignatius in the U.S. Virgin Islands. But trouble follows, as they respond to a distress call from a dive boat, on fire and sinking off Grand Turk, then discover that the sleeping volcano on St. Ignatius is awaking with a vengeance!

    Review:

    “Riveting maritime drama with explosively high stakes and a consistent edge of gritty realism, Indies Inferno by Edward M. Hochsmann is a military procedural flavored with a romantically entangled and unforgettable crew. When a natural disaster interrupts a classified mission, the crew must balance duty to their country with the humane responsibility to preserve life. Boosted in believability by the author’s own experience, the prose is immersive, the action is steeped in authentic suspense, and the dialogue crackles with realism. Drawing on diverse themes of emotional attachment, patriotism, the trauma of disaster, and law enforcement ethics, this latest installment of Hochsmann’s series is a multifaceted and gripping read.”

      This audiobook is narrated by a digital voice. An obsolete patrol boat is all that stands between the world and nuclear annihilation! The world stands on the brink of nuclear disaster when a Russian bomber collides with a U.S. fighter off the Florida coast and launches a nuclear-tipped hypersonic missile which disappears somewhere in the Forida Keys. With the fate of the world in the balance, an aging Coast Guard cutter and its crew are the only ones who can save us. Led by Captain Sam Powell, the brave crew must embark on a dangerous mission to prevent a global nuclear conflict by finding the missile's warhead before a powerful international crime syndicate can get their hands on it. But time is running out and their courage, skill, and friendship will be tested as they race against the clock.  If you enjoyed Marc Cameron's Jack Ryan novels and Mark Greaney's Gray Man series, you'll love Dagger Quest! Taut and action-packed, this thrilling sea adventure is full of technical authenticity and powerful emotions. Review: Submerging readers in the octane-fueled action of America’s coastal military, Dagger Quest by Edward M. Hochsmann is a highly entertaining cross between a seafaring adventure and a high-stakes military drama. At a time of wildly unstable geopolitics, this novel will hit home for contemporary readers… the authenticity of the prose and the detailed technical writing makes readers forget this isn’t a direct account of an international incident. Hochsmann also captures the pace, attitude, hierarchy, and seriousness of life on board a cutter, evidence of his own law enforcement experience in the Coast Guard. Self-Publishing Review

      This audiobook is narrated by a digital voice. Mission: Five days to fight for his life—and the woman he loves—before a catastrophic weapon is unleashed.  Coast Guard officer Ben Wyporek has been tasked with a seemingly impossible mission: infiltrate a fortified Caribbean island to rescue a ship taken hostage by a criminal drug cult and prevent them from unleashing a devastating nerve gas. But with his crew aboard the stealth-equipped cutter Kauai, Ben must battle the island's ruthless adversaries and his own fears to save his crew and reunite with the love of his life, Victoria. From the Caribbean to the depths of Ben's courage, Caribbean Counterstrike is an action-packed adventure full of thrilling missions, sweet romance, and the powerful bonds of friendship. Fans of military thrillers like Tom Clancy's Jack Ryan series will be captivated by this story of heart-stopping danger and daring heroism. If you enjoyed the first book in the Cutter Kauai Sea Adventures series, Caribbean Counterstrike will have you on the edge of your seat. For those seeking a heroic tale of courage and love, this book is a must-read! Review: Hochsmann’s meticulous prose continues to hum with lived experience and authenticity, while the relationships onboard the Kauai only deepen in complexity. Despite the patriotic nature of this swashbuckling series, there are also moments of brutal honesty about the challenges and issues within the US military – from unwieldy chains of command to the expendable nature of dedicated servicemen. The author’s ability to craft a blockbuster story while weaving in critical themes of trust, honor, and independence is a testament to his nuanced perspective on the complex subject matter… this gripping maritime thriller delivers in every way.

They must insert and retrieve a Defense Intelligence Agency operations team trying to seize a transnational criminal syndicate boss from a small Caribbean island controlled by a front company of the Chinese government and protected by a superior military force. Can Haley avoid leaving the DIA team to their fate, when attempting to rescue them could destroy her crew and boat and lead to war?
