Publisher Description

On Pensacola Beach, the Coast Guard prepares for a Category 5 hurricane that has entered the Gulf of Mexico. When the air crew patrols the waterways, they spot a huge fishing cooler about a mile offshore. Drug traffickers have been known to dump coolers with smuggled product to avoid detection and pay fishermen to retrieve them. But when the crew open this cooler, they're shocked by what they find: body parts tightly wrapped in plastic.

Though she is putting herself in the projected path of the hurricane, Special Agent Maggie O'Dell is sent to investigate. Eventually, she's able to trace the torso in the cooler back to a man who mysteriously disappeared weeks earlier after a hurricane hit Port St. Lucie, Florida. Only Port St. Lucie is on the Atlantic side. How did his body end up six hundred miles away in the Gulf of Mexico?

Cliffhanger chapters, behind-the-scenes forensic details, colorful characters, and satisfying twists have become the trademarks of Kava's psychological thrillers. In Damaged, she ratchets up the suspense a notch by sending Maggie into the eye of an impending monster hurricane to track down a killer.

"Book not as gory as some of her books have been. Tells what the story of finding a cooler filled with body parts during a hurricane. Good mystery. I have read some of her books scared to death, this was tame in comparison, still glad that I read it. "

    " Didn't like the way this book jumped back and forth between storylines. There wasn't much mystery to this either. You can easily determine the oitcome of this story within the first few chapters. "

    " I've enjoyed all of Kava's books that I've read so far. This one wasn't bad but wasn't as good as the others. I do appreciate her attention to detail and how she seems to seamlessly combine fact and fiction. It's still worth reading and it is also one of her shorter novels. I read in a couple days. "

    " My main complaint about this book was that it was too short! While I am no fan of the 500-page behemoths that many myster novels seem to be these days, I felt like I was just starting to get into the characters, and then the book was done! Guess I'll have to read more in the series. "
