Ferdinand's Gold by Sheldon Charles
My rating: 4 of 5 stars

Dex Kevan is an air cargo specialist in the USAF, stationed at Guam, and he has a pretty monotone life. Shipping manifests, warehouses and more dreary things fill his daily life while he just wants to go unnoticed and escape his fathers shameful shadow. Slowly but surely, his life is falling to pieces, his girlfriend on the verge of leaving him and his career hurtling towards a dead end. An unexpected event thrusts Dex into a dangerous plot, one that may very well get him killed, but can this be his chance at making his own mark in his life? Or will he end up losing his life to those filled with greed?
Based on a true story, this book might seem a bit far fetched to you, but the action is continuous (once it starts) and Dex is a charismatic Hero, when he wants to be. I liked the story, reminded me a little of my own USAF days in the big warehouses so much of it was familiar. Good job.
