About this listen
Misery Bay is a picturesque fishing village on the Eastern shore of Nova Scotia, a seemingly idyllic location. But the islands and hidden coves hide something more sinister. Illegal immigrants and drugs are being smuggled in for the escort services in Halifax. Special Constable Garrett Barkhouse has spent 20 years fighting these twin scourges, but now he's burned out and planning to retire. However, his boss, Deputy Commissioner Alton Tuttle, has other plans. He entices Garrett to return to his old home town and establish a police presence on the Eastern shore. What he expects will be light duty - Garrett quickly discovers - is anything but. An unexpected murder of four young girls leads him into a thick web of interconnecting drug pushers, illegal immigrants, and prostitution.
While he tries to get a handle on events, Garrett is sucked back into many of the relationships from his childhood. The cast of colorful characters includes Roland Cribby, a scallop fisherman and all-around unpleasant character, old man Publicover who has just married his fifth wife, beautiful reporter Kitty Wells, and Garrett's cousin, a giant of a man who is an enforcer for the longshoremen on the waterfront in Halifax.
An offshore oil rig, conveniently outside Canadian territorial waters, becomes the focus of the investigation. Global Resources CEO Anthony DeMaio has developed a nice sideline to the oil business. When Kitty Wells - the beautiful reporter - tries to investigate, she is swept up by the machinations and kidnapped into sex slavery. As a series of hurricanes push in from the North Atlantic, Garrett and Lonnie find themselves fighting not only drug lords and CEOs, but also the elements that threaten to topple the oil rig and kill everyone on board.
Skyhorse Publishing, as well as our Arcade, Yucca, and Good Books imprints, are proud to publish a broad range of books for listeners interested in fiction - novels, novellas, political and medical thrillers, comedy, satire, historical fiction, romance, erotic and love stories, mystery, classic literature, folklore and mythology, literary classics including Shakespeare, Dumas, Wilde, Cather, and much more. While not every title we publish becomes a New York Times best seller or a national best seller, we are committed to books on subjects that are sometimes overlooked and to authors whose work might not otherwise find a home.

What would you do if you discovered a five million dollar superyacht unmanned and adrift, a trail of blood across the deck and a bikini-clad blonde with a knife in her back? That’s exactly what Florida salvage captain Seychelle Sullivan finds when she responds to a strange woman’s Mayday call. Worse, the missing skipper is Neal Garrett, her ex. But when she ties the salvaged yacht to the Coast Guard dock, the Fort Lauderdale detective zeroes in on her as a suspect and raises questions. Questions she can’t answer.

Good triumphs over EVIL !
Action was great. Sex was not graphic, but conveyed the horror of slave sex trade.Good people win in the end, but struggle was difficult and uncertain.Nova Scotian accents added to the enjoyment of the story.

Great story! (minor spoiler included)
Interesting characters, great plot, plenty of action . . . . what more could you ask for. Yes, the main storyline of child sex slavery is disturbing, but it is told with compassion and dedication from the characters on the hunt to bring down the bad guys. There is no graphic description of the abuse of the children, merely a mention of what was happening. There is a bit more detail of the sexual assault of an adult, but nothing too graphic. The best thing about this book is the ending. You know how you always wish that the bad guy would get more than just being killed quickly or getting sent off to prison? Well, in this novel, your wish is granted! I will look for more by this author. Narrator was great except for one of the female voices!

Misery Bay
Although I found this to be hard to get into, once all fitted into place thoroughly enjoyed this mystery book/listen. Pretty scary at times, when you think this happens in the real world. Loved the ending! The narration was good.

I love true justice.
Going to have to find more from this author. Despite a few technical flaws, nothing more satisying than an ending with true justice doled out.

Disgusting racism and misogyny
The sexism and misogyny is really over the top. The racist characterization of Muslims is also gross.

not finishable
i had to stop listening. If you are supposed to be the good guy then you don't just look at a woman you think you like and grab her to kiss her. I'm over trying to listen to men characters grabbing woman and doing what they want without verifing a woman wants you to touch her let alone kiss her.

Argh, the narrator killed this book
The voice characterisations are extremely poor, making this listen pathetic. I'm sure the story is good if you can get past the narration.
