But Boone is also obsessed with the unsolved case of a young girl named Rain who was abducted while he was with the San Diego police. He blames himself, just as almost everyone in the department did, for not being able to save her.
Unexpectedly, he finds himself with the chance to make amends, and this new investigation gives him a wilder ride than any he's ever imagined.

What did you love best about The Dawn Patrol?
The story arc and how the whole "wave" of the story all rolled together.Did the plot keep you on the edge of your seat? How?
Yes. I was never really sure what was going to happen next. The suspense was real.Which character – as performed by Ray Porter – was your favorite?
Can't remember all of the character's names since it has been a while since I listened to this book but the blond female surfer who rode that big wave at the end was my favorite.Was there a moment in the book that particularly moved you?
The big wave, which was the climax of the story and fit in with the whole story arc.Any additional comments?
At first, I was annoyed by all of the back stories and surfer lingo, but as the story progressed, I began to see how it all fit in and made the story what it was, which was more about how the world changes around people and they have to evolve with it. Friendships change, relationships change and people discover who is true and who is a sell out. The golden years are nice but time moves on and people learn, evolve and grow up. People also learn to move beyond their misgivings and regrets. The arc of the story with the metaphor of the big wave was an excellent story telling technique and made the book what it is, more than just a detective story and one detective story told in a very unique fashion.Surprisingly good

Tone of voice has a lot to do with it,lots of good narrators do that, Cassandra Cambell, Will Patton, but it was the timing and the rhythm of his reading that set this book apart.
I have listened to other books read by Mr. Porter and I have liked them but something about this book that was exceptional . The marriage of the characters, the plot and the reading that brings it above the sum of all three. On a par with my favorite narration; Patrick Tull , reading Aubrey/ Maturin which in my opinion is the best narration of all time.
Worth the credit.
Outstanding narration
