“Eyewitness” by Pat Wiley, A Jack Quinn Novel

January 31, 2016 by SF Parrott Leave a Comment

Eyewitness, Book 1, Jack Quinn Novel,  Pat WileyMy name is Jack Quinn. I’m in prison, awaiting trial for murder on the high seas. The nightmare leading to my arrest began while sailing alone to the island of Bermuda. I swear, with God as my witness, I was coming to aid a boat in distress. I am writing this in the hope someone may know something––anything to help prove I’m innocent.

***

Freelance writer, Jack Quinn, has lost everything – his job, his life savings and now his freedom. What turned out to be an opportunity to fulfill his dream of sailing single- handed from New England to Bermuda has transformed into a nightmare.

Barely surviving a hurricane, Jack offers aid to survivors on a dis-masted sailboat. But something is wrong. After arriving back to the mainland, Jack’s arrested and finds himself the prime suspect in an extensive FBI investiga- tion of smuggling, money laundering and murder. Overwhelming evidence mounts as Jack relies on two women, one of whom risks her life, to find corroborating evidence to his story and track down the only witness in his favor––a humpback whale.

In Memory

Ronald P. “Ron” Lovell, Author, Friend

August 1937 — March 2025

Ron Lovell was born in Colorado Springs and later graduated from UCLA. After serving in the Army, he built a journalism career and became a beloved OSU professor. In retirement, he wrote two mystery series—14 Thomas Martindale books and 4 featuring Lorenzo Madrid.

I’ll miss your “serious” critiques, that sent me into laughing fits on how my writing as “too cutsie” and our weekly donuts and coffee runs, talking about writing, stories, and everything in between.

You were and still are my best friend.
