Review
"Michael "Murph" Murphy is a protagonist that will appeal to men and women readers alike, and promises to be the center of attention as the Coastal series moves ahead. Well written in clean, tight prose with strong dialogue and an interesting set of characters. Kudos, Don!" John H. Cunningham, Author of The Buck Reilly Series

- Reviewed in the United States on October 29, 2019A Perfect Beach Read
Even if you’re land-locked at home, this tale of a group of boat-loving wharf rats who swap fishing stories over beers at a small marina on the Eastern Shore of Virginia will draw you in. Recently relocated charter boat owner Michael “Murph” Murphy and his girlfriend, Lindsay, are in the process of buying the long-neglected marina with plans to fix it up and make it more attractive for tourists and other boat owners. The current marina residents are wary of the newcomers and their plans, until Lindsay and Murph are targeted by bomb-wielding criminals for no known reason.
The plot provides the action, but the quirky characters are the story. Spending time with Murph, Lindsay and guys named Baloney, Faffer, Ripper and Hard Rock will keep you utterly entertained. As this book is the first in a series, I plan on sitting down and enjoying more stories from this motley crew. They’re as refreshing as an ocean breeze on a summer day.
- Reviewed in the United States on July 9, 2022This was a fun story. Lots of action and fun characters. I'm a fan. I'm looking forward to their future adventures.
- Reviewed in the United States on November 1, 2023Like all the other Tropical Authors, Don Rich weaves a tale of intrigue, action, suspense and a dose of humor. One of the best books I've read so far. Love the story and the writing technique. Well done Don can't wait for the next one.
- Reviewed in the United States on September 25, 2023The author has created an amazing and innovative plot to go with a great group of characters making this hard to stop reading
- Reviewed in the United States on December 24, 2021Rehoboth doesn’t have a high-dollar fishing tournament (Ocean City does, but not mentioned). There are no malls in lower Delmarva.
- Reviewed in the United States on August 27, 2021My brother in law is involved in a rebuild/remodel of a marina near Beaufort, NC. I’ve told him about this book so when he finds time he will probably read it. The Marina community celebrates beer Wednesday every week, so the beer thirty bunch is very similar to their gatherings. I enjoyed the book very much.
- Reviewed in the United States on October 18, 2019Coastal Conspiracy was a great start to a new series by Don Rich. Set on the Eastern Shore of Virginia, the story introduces a wide cast of characters, many of whom will no doubt appear repeatedly in subsequent installments of the series as the story arc covers the redevelopment of Mallard Cove into multi-use marina, hotel and restaurant facility simultaneously with a human trafficking ring targeting young woman in the same area. Michael “Murph” Murphy is a protagonist that will appeal to men and women readers alike, and promises to be the center of attention as the Coastal series moves ahead. Well written in clean, tight prose with strong dialogue and an interesting set of characters. Kudos, Don!
- Reviewed in the United States on March 30, 2023I have never read a book twice, until now! I have previously read this entire series,and then I discovered Coastal Beginnings. In the authors notes at the beginning of Coastal Changes (book 1), Don states the purpose of the series as a precursor to Coastal Adventures, but if you had already read Adventures, that's OKAY, these will fill in a LOT of blanks! He was absolutely correct!!! So, my recommendation is, if you haven't, read Beginnings; if you have, ENJOY Adventures😁😁
