Late spring, 2019. The chance of a lifetime. Five men with early retirement on the horizon. One metric tonne of gold bars: 32,150.7 troy ounces. With prices hovering in the neighborhood of thirteen hundred dollars an ounce; 41.6 million dollars, theirs for the taking. All they have to do is intercept and reroute a Miami-bound armored truck from Key West and its contents to a new location.Two formidable obstacles stand in the way of them accomplishing their objective: some means of controlling the armored truck crew without anyone getting hurt and managing to pull off the heist without getting arrested before they move the first bar. One of the five men, a brilliant engineer, offers high-tech solutions for both. A means to incapacitate the crewmembers and simultaneously paralyze every law enforcement agency in the Florida Keys. A simple yet ingenious plan. Easy peasy, no guns, no weapons, and a promise that no one will get hurt. Every last detail planned to a tee. What could possibly go wrong?If you're thinking of going into business, choose your partners very carefully . . .

Dominic Rehnquist is a private investigator who lives in Islamorada in the Upper Florida Keys. By happenstance, one day while he is out for his morning run, he sees a man physically abusing a young woman, intervenes, and the man flees. Having saved the day, he learns that the woman, Rosie Barela, is a single mother who lives in Homestead with her grandmother and three-year-old son and was waiting for the bus to take her home when she was attacked. Within hours of returning home, Rosie's attacker and another man force their way into her home and abduct her with the intention of resigning her to a life of forced prostitution. As Rosie and her grandmother are both undocumented immigrants, reporting the kidnapping to the police is out of the question, and so, Rosie's grandmother calls upon Rehnquist for help, to find Rosie and free her from her captors. Rehnquist knows that once he does, he'll also have to ensure that the two men never trouble her again.

The discovery of a rotting corpse by a young man on a four-wheeler foretells what will soon become an unspeakable horror; something is systematically killing the men in the rural, close-knit farming community of Poe County, North Dakota.But are the vicious attacks the random acts of a wild animal, or are they the premeditated crimes of a human killer? In time, with every subsequent attack, it becomes apparent that all the victims share a common past; do they also share a common secret?The race is on to find and stop the killer before the next attack, but are a small county sheriff and his coroner friend up to the task?

A fast hookup at a Duval Street bar ends at a woman's home in a small, upscale Key West neighborhood. A few hours later her roommate returns home and discovers her brutally murdered body on the living room floor. Within hours, Scott Hammerstone, the man the woman left the bar with, is arrested and charged with rape and first-degree murder. Hammerstone maintains his innocence, and his attorney hires an Upper Keys private investigator, Dominick Rehnquist, to find the actual killer. The victim is a recent transplant from Seattle; having only lived in the Keys for a few months. Unable to identify a single person known to have disliked her, much less anyone with a motive for killing her, Rehnquist's investigation quickly hits a brick wall. Rehnquist's search for the killer eventually leads him to the victim's past, toward a most unlikely suspect. Someone with a dubious motive, but somebody with the means to have committed the crime, remained undetected, and to have implicated Hammerstone; only, can Rehnquist prove it?

It was the seventies and the eighties, the Florida Keys, a time of insanity. But at the time, it was the norm. People that if you didn't know any better, you would never have suspected-or believed-that they were running drugs. Prominent people. Businesspeople. Politicians and public officials. Smuggling dope was a means to an end. A lot of people did it; others turned a blind eye to it-accepted it as a way of life-including a lot of the local cops. Some people stayed with it, and it eventually got them into trouble; others only smuggled long enough to be able to afford to start or buy a business, then they turned legit. People bought charter boats, gas stations, restaurants, campgrounds, and mom and pop motels. Present-day, two Islamorada men head out for a day of fishing, but instead of fish, they land a bale of cocaine. The decision to bring home that day's catch and one of the two men's subsequent brush with his past will ultimately cost them both their lives, but not before one of them leaves a finger pointing at Keys detective Dominic Rehnquist for answers.

After a man suddenly disappears without a trace, his sister goes in search of answers. Unable to convince the local police that her brother must be the victim of foul play, she enlists the help of an unlikely private investigator who is haunted by a troubled past. When Rehnquist left Miami and the police department for the tranquil solitude of the Florida Keys, he thought that he had put the days of pursuing violent criminals behind him. That was before a beautiful, blonde stranger unexpectedly interrupted his quiet, simple life with a desperate plea for help, a personal challenge, and the opportunity to repay an old friend for saving his life years before. When he reluctantly agrees to help her, he has no idea where this case will lead him, or that discovering her brother's secret might well cost him his own life.
