The Port Havannah Paradox

Mitch Blaine, aviator extraordinaire, returns! In this third much-awaited novel in the series, Mitch Blaine and his learned sidekick Beyer have returned to their isolated retreat on Apache Lake in the Arizona desert, where a young Mexican girl has been ruthlessly tossed out of a low-flying aircraft.

After saving her life, they are drawn into a battle of retribution with the same gang of thugs who attempted to slay her.

Severely wounded in the ensuing fray, Beyer has unilaterally determined that it is time to go home.

Now the intrepid duo has decided to fly back to Australia in their vintage PBY flying boat, the Wayward Wind.

They plan a fuel stop in Vanuatu in the South Pacific to visit some old friends at Havannah Harbor-a repair base for the U.S.

Navy's Pacific Fleet just prior to the Battle of the Coral Sea-on the island of Efate.

Only thing is, it's cyclone season down there, and one of the most devastating storms that part of the world has ever known is heading right toward Vanuatu.

When Blaine and Beyer arrive at the exact moment that the cyclone is battering the islands, they inadvertently fly into one of the most bizarre adventures they have yet encountered-and literally right into history!
