Border Lake Ray Summers

People have unexplainably gone missing on Lake Amistad as it arises along the border between the United States and Mexico after the building of a dam on the Rio Grande River in south Texas. Ryan Shaw, a special agent for U. S. Customs, gets drawn into the dangerous mystery even though it's not part of his official duties. He's back along the border where he served for many earlier years, this time on special assignment from his current post in Washington, D. C., there to investigate a customs inspector who has been misusing his duties to molest young women. When Shaw meets Sarah Dobbs, one of the errant inspector's intended victims, he learns how she has spent the summer combing the lake in a motorboat for clues to the fate of her sister and brother-in-law, who disappeared there a few months before. And joins the attractive and determined woman in her quest. The second book in the Border Agent Mystery series by retired federal officer Ray Summers, "Border Lake" is redolent with the natural beauty of the manmade lake's twists, turns, coves, inlets, hills and cliffs as well as the local characters and culture found on and around its waters. It beckons readers to dive into its story as both old legends and current crimes intersect to create questions that beg to be answered.
