A survivor against all odds, Remmy is worn out from war. After twenty years of special-ops service, mostly in the cold mountains of Afghanistan, Sergeant Delton L. Remson pursues his simpler life on a warm, once-pristine beach. His oceanside village and secluded campsite, just off busy and often nefarious sea lanes, become more dangerous each tourist season. Remmy emerges as beach guardian, monitoring brilliant white-sand shores. He picks up strewn aluminum cans for extra cash, becoming protector of Bud and Daphne, his elderly Haitian friends. Claire, so far away, is always in his thoughts. Remmy and mysterious Sanghee thwart a brutal attack, then he falls into a world of peril as heartbreaking family challenges soon draw him back to his beautiful Idaho hometown.
