NEXT GENERATION INDIE BOOK AWARDS FINALIST!
A beach, a body, and an island where everyone has something to hide. Gordon Strange is living the dream on bucolic Hogge Island-a bridgeless oasis in the Gulf of Mexico. He runs the island's best restaurant, aided by Marvelita, his longtime companion and a powerhouse whose menus are surpassed only by her ability to read people and situations. Their peaceful routine is shattered when a body is found on Hogge's pristine shores. Soon he and Marvelita are plunged into a web of classic Florida intrigue: unscrupulous realtors, eccentric recluses, escalating tensions, and murder. And everyone's long-buried secrets are coming to light. Including his.
