The Defining Sea by Robert Friedman

Crime, corruption, and colonialism--as well as compassion, survival, and dark humor--are woven into The Puerto Rico Trilogy, which consists of three separate character-driven novels that focus on the Caribbean island and its complex political and social relationship with the U.S.

The Defining Sea. book two, was also sparked by U.S.-Puerto Rico history. Its plot is derived from the U.S, Navy's decades-long live fire and bombing exercises on the inhabited offshore Puerto Rico island of Vieques, which caused death and serious illness. The story told concerns a 20-year-old University of Puerto Rico student who delivers drugs between the island and the states to raise money for a scholarship that will be named after his girlfriend, killed by police during a protest against the Navy's maneuvers.

Friedman, Robert: - Robert Friedman has spent his entire professional career searching for Steinway grand pianos that have been loved and cared for over their many years, and occasionally decades, of ownership. Through his work over the past 40 years, these musical treasures have found their place in the hearts of new owners worldwide. With the help of the thousands of people in his network, his never-ending search continues for Steinways manufactured from 1853 to the present. Robert lives with his wife, Ronnie, in New York's beautiful Hudson Valley. Together they share seven children and thirteen grandchildren, spread far and wide. When he's not on the hunt for pianos, Robert enjoys spending time with his family, traveling, and playing guitars, drums, and pianos.
