The sea has inspired exceptional art, marvelous music, and the finest of literature. It is a thing of great beauty. It is also powerful and unforgiving. And it hides the darkest of secrets. Sometimes the water takes note of a small thing—a dumb little decision, a stupid bit of showing off—and it changes lives forever. Sim Greene is a fine companion and a gifted detective. A semi-devout bachelor in his late thirties, he lives in Channel Islands Harbor aboard Figaro, a 39-foot sailboat. He surfs when he likes, sails whenever he can, and loves a woman who is way out of his league. His best friend, Al Higgins, is a retired Navy Seal who lives on his own boat two slips over. “Close-Hauled,” the first book in the Sim Greene / Figaro Mystery series, introduces Sim as a Chief Petty Officer with twenty years in the US Navy as a Master-at-Arms and Al as his retired-but-still-dangerous friend. Sim enjoys his job but is hoping to be approved for officer training to boost his career and maybe land a slot in the Naval Criminal Investigative Service. Assigned to investigate the death of a retired Navy Lieutenant, something usually reserved for NCIS, Sim finds himself tangled in something much larger and far darker than a simple murder. Soon, the things he loves and the people he cares about are all at risk. Al is drawn into the situation and the two must use their wits and skills to survive. One false move and the spider web they’ve stumbled into will ruin their lives. Or end them.

Rob Avery is a criminal defense attorney, sailor, and author. Rob was born in 1956 in Burbank, California, but spent as much time as he could at the beach or in the Pacific Ocean. He got hooked on sailing when his older brother borrowed a small sloop and took Rob on his first day sail out of Marina Del Rey. Rob was eight. Now he is a criminal defense lawyer by profession with a passion for sailing. His writing combines the two. Rob also hates referring to himself in the third person but can do so when pressed.
