Cocaine. Dan Marlowe is doing his damnedest to stay away from the stuff. It’s already cost him his family and his business, The High Tide Restaurant & Saloon. Now a bartender at the Tide, Dan’s life is slowly stabilizing. That is until a boat with two dead bodies on board is found wrecked on the jetty at Hampton Beach, New Hampshire. The hunt for its missing cargo, 200 pounds of cocaine, is on. Dan is forced into the search and realizes that the drug that stole everything short of his life might be the one thing that can give it all back.
He’s not the only one seeking the fortune in white powder. Others, on both sides of the law, are after it too, including a Boston mob boss and his right-hand man; a New Hampshire seacoast drug dealer/informer, his smokin’ hot girlfriend, and his dim-witted muscle; a crooked D.E.A. agent and his junkie sidekick; two New Hampshire State policemen; and an Irish handyman. It’s a violent, back-stabbing race to the end of the rainbow.
May the best man win.

I came across this in the Kindle store while searching for books by Dan J. Marlowe, and since I have vacationed at Hampton Beach every year for about ten years now, it caught my eye and after reading the sample decided to pick up the book. This is good reading. Although the plot line involving missing heist money, the various characters crossing paths while looking for it (including gangsters, drug dealers, crooked AND straight cops, dumb muscle, dumber molls, and all the regular-type characters that show up in these types of novels) is nothing anyone will find groundbreaking, the characters are written very well and with humor and realism, and the pacing of the novel generally moves along very nicely (although there are a few transfers from one chapter to the next where I felt as if something had been left out). Also, the main character is sympathetic and likeable, and Power uses the novel's setting and scenery about as well and anyone could. If you are familiar with Hampton Beach you will probably love this book. Even if you are not, if you enjoy crime novels you could do a lot worse than this. I look forward to the next book in the Dan Marlowe series and look forward to watching Jed Power improve as he writes more novels.Product details

The Boss of Hampton Beach The Dan Marlowe Crime Series Book 1 eBook Jed Power Reviews
I've been to Hampton Beach many times over the years. The book brought back many memories. Have the author from
my home town was a plus. I truly enjoyed the book and I have recommened to my friends. I hope he writes more book about
the area.
Hope everyone get to read The Boss of Hampton Beach
I loved the book. I'm an avid reader of Michael Connelly, James Lee Burke, Elmore Leonard, Ian Rankin and many other crime novelists. This book was as good as any of those writers in my opinion. I'm looking forward to reading Jed's other books.
I was never really interested in crime novels until I read The Boss of Hampton Beach. I have vacationed on Hampton beach since I was a child and found it intriguing to read about places that were familiar. The story was well written and captivating. I found the characters and their individual roles entertaining, even their Boston accents made me chuckle!! It was the type of book that you can't put down and want to keep on reading. I am looking forward to reading the next book when released.
Living in NH - I've been to Hampton Beach quite a bit. I enjoyed the "name" dropping of the different spots - the boardwalk, the Shell, the Casino. I felt like I could walk along with the author and be part of the action.
Liked the story, easy reading,good characters. I plan to read more by Jed power. It also had a good ending.
Crooked feds, dead bodies, drug smugglers, and a protagonist with problems and a bad past, who tries to sort things out. All set at Hampton Beach, a treat for those who know the area.
A fun summer read, with easily recognizable characters and locales. Crooks and capers with the summer sun and the ocean breeze adding spice to everything.
It's the start of a series, so if you like this one, move on to the rest.
If you want Boston nitty-gritty, this crime novel is your ticket. Bartender Dan Marlowe (who shares a name with the paperback suspense novelist who produced The Name of the Game is Death), gets inadvertantly embroiled in a battle among low-lives and mobsters desperate to recover a load of cocaine that has gone missing. Marlowe can be a tough guy, but he also yearns for the kids from which he has been separated by the cocaine habit that took away his good sense for a while. His battle to regain his life and to do right by his friends and family--all the while trying to fend off a crooked DEA agent and various nasty criminals--make this novel an absorbing read. Fans of Dennis Lehane and George V. Higgins will revel in the settings and atmosphere,and anyone who loves a hard-charging plot will love the story.
