"Ringer" - A Kindle Romantic Suspense/Thriller


Product Details


As a "fun experiment," three Hilton Head Island authors decided to collaborate on writing a romantic suspense/thriller. The happy result was Ringer, a digital book available on Kindle ($2.99).


Set mostly on Hilton Head Island, it is the story an attempt to derail an International Peace Conference being held at the Cloisters on Sea Island, Georgia. 


In the service of a clandestine organization of the government, IMPOSTR, Caroline Stephens is a specialist in disguise and surgically changing a person's appearance. After a successful operation at a safe house in West Virginia, her world falls apart. By accident she survives an attempt to kill her and realizes that not only is she the target of her own agency, but also that her own brother who is calling the shots.


After escaping  south, she attempts to hide as an oyster sucker on Hilton Head Island where she meets a fishing boat captain who is a former Navy SEAL, Can Coop, and their benevolent employer, Noah Stamper. By accident Caroline and Can learn that they are both threats to an important general who has presidential ambitions and that, therefore, they are his targets.


Having determined  the general's plans,Caroline, Can and Noah set out on a nearly impossible mission to thwart the general's scheme- a plan which would severely damage international relations for years to come.


The novel is  fast-paced  action with an adequate dash of suspense. The local color helps the reader overlook some of the coincidences of the plot line, but its charm is the interesting characters whom the reader quickly identifies with.


Tre' Hilton is the pseudonym for three Hilton Head authors: Kathy Wall, known for her Bay Tanner series, Jo Williams, author of The Song My Soul Remembers, and Vicky Hunnings, author of The Bride Wore Blood and other mystery novels.
