What was the nude, recently slain body of Kaithlin Jordan doing spoiling the pristine turquoise waters of Miami Beach - especially when the dead socialite's convicted killer husband is sitting on Death Row for having murdered her . . . ten years ago! Reporter Britt Montero lives for this kind of story. But she may die for this one as well. Because each question raises many others - and every hard-won answer reveals secret passions and explosive truths that could doom an overly inquisitive journalist with a tendency to leap before she looks.
"An intelligent, thoroughly entertaining crime novel." - Booklist
"The real fun of this action-packed series revolves around Britt herself, a realistic character with insatiable curiosity and a mother, a landlady, pets, lovers, and her numerous Miami News sidekicks. . . . Highly recommended." - Library Journal
