Tequila Vikings

Petty Officer Doyle Murphy's problem was not that he was prone to alcohol-fueled misadventure. It was that he tended to revel in it.

Like the Norse berserkers of old, Murphy was not above getting drunk and fighting an adversary naked on occasion. That, along with the notoriety he and his men gained during their boozy forays into Tijuana, is how he became known as one of the USS Belleau Wood's Tequila Vikings.

When his penchant for blurring the line between fun and felony finally goes bad, Murphy lands a vulnerable subordinate at risk of spending years behind bars in a Mexican prison. Getting his man back means risking all that he has achieved: his fianc e, his career, his freedom, and even his life.

Can Murphy free his shipmate without corrupt cartel cops obliterating everything he holds dear? Or will his self-destructive impulses lay it all to waste first?
