From the author of the McCoy and Brinker crime series comes a novel of treachery and greed on Florida’s luxury coast.
In the tony resort town of Spanish Point, sea levels are rising. So is the body count. Both threaten the lifeblood of the Gulf Coast, the real estate industry, and its agents. That includes CW (Candace) McCoy.
In her fourth outing (after Peak Season, Tourist in Paradise and Curb Appeal), the former detective is still reeling from the murder of her fellow real estate agents. She relishes a fresh start—a new agency, a stellar property and a second chance at love. But when she’s attacked near Spanish Point’s hottest condo project, she knows there’s more at play than road rage.
The massive redevelopment will generate untold wealth. It also will expose thousands to the risk of storm surge. Despite nonstop protests and allegations of fraud, the city greenlights the project.
As tragedy strikes, CW launches her own probe, without her friend and mentor Walter Bishop, who’s feared lost at sea. Who approved the project? Who tampered with evidence? And who’s eliminating its opponents? Despite warnings from the authorities, she presses the city elite for answers, jeopardizing her job, alienating friends and lovers and triggering a political backlash that will reach the statehouse.
CW knows who’s guilty. She just has to prove it—before someone sends her on a permanent vacation.
Praise for Jeff Widmer
“CW is a great character. Widmer easily brings the town of Spanish Point and its colorful cast of characters to life. An entertaining mystery romp.” Kirkus Reviews
“A writer who knows how to put the reader in the action is a rare thing. Jeff Widmer does it with every character and every scene.” Anna Schmidt, Last Chance Cowboys series
“Jeff Widmer takes you on a wild ride in the murderous tour bus in a uniquely dark and twisted story that touches on euthanasia, addiction, sex and more. And then there's Brinker. . . .” Louise Machinist, My House Our House
“Reading Jeff Widmer's novels is like gliding on Hans Brinker's silver skates—the writing just flows. It's smooth, sharp and with a cutting edge throughout.” Screenwriter Michael Downend
