The Zora Signal
(2026)(The second book in the Saltwater Justice Thrillers series)
A novel by Connor McCoy
A dead voice on an illegal channel. A murdered radio man in a drifting dive pod. A hidden station that was never supposed to exist.
Two weeks after exposing Blackfin in the Florida Keys, salvage diver Elias "Rook" Baptiste receives a transmission from a dead channel: the ledger moved east, Zora line active, first call received.
The signal leads him across the Straits to Bimini, where a Bahamian radio operator is found murdered inside a decompression pod with a cassette marked FIRST CALL. Local police want justice before U.S. agencies turn the island into someone else's evidence locker. Blackfin's surviving operators want the ledger back before it exposes the routes they built through salvage contracts, medical transports, and hurricane evacuations.
Rook wants the truth about his father. But every answer drags Kai, Sella, Mara, and the crew of The Saint Zora deeper into a network that survived by making witnesses disappear.
To find Station Zora, Rook will have to follow the signal through storm water, old church bells, illegal handoffs, and a salvage barge with a legal claim on every secret it touches.
The Zora Signal is Book 2 in the Saltwater Justice Thrillers series: a fast Caribbean crime thriller with diving, boats, storms, maritime conspiracy, island jurisdiction, and a hard-edged lead who refuses to let the sea keep every body and every lie.
Genre: Thriller
