As tourist season winds down in the Caribbean town of Placencia, boutique owner Kristen Maroney looks forward to a rest. Declaring that everyone could use a party, her friend Claire organizes a beach barbeque. Kristen accepts her invitation reluctantly, only to find out that Claire intends to use the gathering to educate her guests about the plight of sea turtles.
Kristen's hardly an environmentalist, but Claire's beautifully moving footage of damaged coral reefs and a greatly diminished turtle population arouses her interest. Then, when Claire takes her scuba diving, she sees first hand the turtles' gentle grace and the mindless devastation of the reef. By nature a woman who can't leave problems unresolved, she plunges into the cause.
She starts asking questions, and suddenly finds herself flat on her back in the hospital with multiple injuries. To make matters worse, her obstreperous grandmother has arrived from Las Vegas and is making life miserable. She thinks things can't get any worse, but no sooner is she out of the hospital than she is attacked again and this time her life is threatened. To keep herself and her Gram safe, she must take extraordinary measures to get some very evil men before they get her.
