Shutterplank Publishing provided this description of the novel:

SALT CREEK JUSTICE author William Valentine has fished and hunted in exotic locations all over the world. He has written a novel that will appeal to sportsmen/adventurers everywhere. William has crafted a suspense story combining survival skills, a major Billfish Tournament, the Tampa mafia, robbery, murder, undying brotherly love, and big money. It is an action-packed crime caper on the high seas; SALT CREEK JUSTICE's plot twists and turns as the intriguing characters rush toward the surprise ending without a clue. Crisply written, the author blends in bits of local knowledge and history, with a wry wit, as the story winds its way thru the tropics. There's also some solid fishing and boat handling narrative throughout. So, join this rollicking boat ride from Florida, down the Bahamas, across the Caribbean, thru the Panama Canal, and finally to verdant Costa Rica.

The Buzz:

"Have you ever wanted to take a ride in a large sportfishing boat from Florida all the way to Costa Rica? Well, jump aboard the 54 foot Bertram 'Chica' for the ride of your life. You'll be surrounded by robbery, murder, greed, deceit, romance, and four different oceans. But when you peel all that back it's really about the redeeming nature of a brother's love and forgiveness. What a ride!"  —-Capt. Tommy Tucker

"William Valentine is a sea-wise and seasoned boatsman. He uses what the sea gives him to his advantage. The action fueled and fast paced plot keeps you turning the pages. The main characters give hope to all middle-aged anglers and adventurers. If you liked Travis McGee, Thorn, or Doc Ford; you'll love Seth Stone."    —George Otto – the Bite Blog
