Sea of Shadows

When Mexican drug cartels and Chinese traffickers join forces to poach the rare totoaba fish in the Sea of Cortez, their methods threaten to destroy all marine life in the region, including the most elusive and endangered whale species on Earth, the Vaquita Porpoise. Sea of Shadows follows a team of dedicated scientists, high-tech conservationists, investigative journalists, and undercover agents as they risk their lives to save the last remaining vaquitas and bring the international crime syndicate to justice.
