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.”
