New Holland is coming.  This submerged city of organized lawlessness built to cruise the international waters of the world will soon be making its way to a port near you, but before it can even be constructed, the wealthy Kuglers will have to be talked into sponsoring the project by young Mick, who has just married into the family.

In Book One of the Danglers Series, we meet a global cast of characters: the maritime architect who designed drilling platforms before being hired to build a tsunami-proof apartment complex in Tokyo Bay; two computer hackers from Juarez who commit the wrong crime at the right moment; a medical researcher in New York who refuses to share her latest breakthrough with her corporate sponsor; and a bodybuilder in Amsterdam who unwittingly applies for a job that will change his life when he agrees to help clean up someone else's mess in the Red Light District.  All the while, we learn more and more about the enigmatic Ruth Kugler, heiress to a family fortune that can be traced back to twelfth-century Vienna.
