Oil and Water: Crash in Curacao

By Eric Douglas

Oil and Water: Crash in Curacao
  • Available in: Softcover, audiobook and Kindle
Amazon Kindle, Paperback and AudiobookAudible audiobookBarnes and Noble

A jet plane crashes in the waters off of the island nation of Curacao catapulting international news photographer Mike Scott on a chase to figure out who brought down the plane and why. More importantly, he has to save the life of the pilot he rescued from the water after the crash and his own life in the process.

Oil and Water weaves a story of international intrigue with oil cartels and mercenaries sent to disrupt their plans.

This is the seventh story in the Mike Scott thriller series. Mike has traveled around the world for adventure, scuba diving and mystery. The most recent full-length novel in the series is Return to Cayman. There are a total of six Mike Scott novels and three short stories (including this one). Mike makes a crossover into the Withrow Key series in Queen Conch.

See some scenes from the beautiful island of Curacao that are featured in the book…with page references.

Reviews

Douglas’ Mike Scott stories are two books in one: An exciting adventure and a travelogue of exotic places we’d all like to visit. I enjoy how he seamlessly works the geography, history, and even the best places to drink, into the story. Oil and Water has put Curacao on my destination wish list. (But not when Mike Scott is there. That guy is trouble!)

– Daniel Boyd, author/filmmaker, Chillers, Carbon, Salt

Just finished it! I loved it, every bit! It’s a fast, fun exciting read! Diving with Mike Scott is always an adventure and he’s latest is full of intrigue and excitement. I know you told me “Mike Scott ” would be back, and you didn’t disappoint…he is back, bigger than life and better than ever!!! (I do love all your books though.)

– Emma Cummings

Five Stars: Thanks for the snack, Mr. Douglas! (excerpted)

Author Eric Douglas gives his readers a “tasty snack” in this latest Mike Scott adventure. This novella captured my interest from the first paragraph and held it until the final sentence. I devoured this novella in about the same time I’d take diving a reef in Grand Cayman (with nitrox), enjoying every minute.

I’m ready for the next course, and am looking forward to it being served.
