Archie Douglas is out for a sea trial with his 14-foot boat, Mira Flores, in Santa Monica Bay when a four-year-old falls overboard from a passing speedboat.
Immediately Archie’s skills and his boat’s seaworthiness are put to the test as he races to fish Shanti Jackson from the bay.
After delivering her to a hospital, Archie is unable to get the little girl and her troubled mother out of his mind.
When he steps boldly into their lives, he’s swept into the seamy, perilous world of drug dealers, porn hustlers, gamblers, and kidnappers.
Archie must not only find a way to rescue Shanti and her mom, but also to deal with the secret pain that shadows everything he does.

Rick Campbell
Rick was a Peace Corps volunteer, a Southern California hippie, a devotee of an Indian guru, and, after getting saved in 1982, a lay worker in his home church, one not unlike Westside in this story.
Rick earned his Ph.D. in psychology in 1975 and practiced counseling for 32 years. In 1996 he wrote Gaining Spiritual Ground: A Practical Guide to Sanctification, a self-help book that sums up what he learned throughout his Christian counseling career.
Rick is an avid sailor. “It’s when I feel most alive; God is out there,” he says. For 15 years he has cruised the Pacific Northwest. He and his wife, Anne, spend weeks in the spring, summer, and early fall gunkholing in the Gulf and San Juan Islands. He has passed on this love of sailing to his three daughters and their families.
