The perfect, nude corpse of a beautiful woman washes up on a perfect Miami Beach - her body tanned and shapely, her nails elegantly manicured. The problem is the victim, Kaithlin Jordan, was supposedly murdered ten years ago. And her convicted killer - her husband, R.J. Jordan, scion of a wealthy and powerful South Florida family - sits on Death Row, just weeks from his execution. Newspaper reporter Britt Montero recalls the high-profile murder trial that heated up a volatile tropical city like a merciless August sun. Even without a body, the prosecution's case against Jordan seemed airtight and the jury enthusiastically bought into it. Now R.J. is preparing to walk - benefiting from the murderous "largess" of whomever drowned his wife off Miami Beach - and Britt's boundlessly curious nature is energized once more by a slew of questions that suddenly need answers. Did Kaithlin frame her husband for murder - or had she simply efficiently fled an abusive marriage? And why, after successfully reinventing herself, had she returned to South Florida, only to meet a very bad end in deep turquoise water? Impulsive and explosive, with a turbulent love life and a unique, highly charged relationship with this singular metropolis erected between swamp and sea, Britt is only truly happy when she's involved in a juicy death story. And this one has the right smell and feel . . .and threat. Because somewhere in the tangle of an enigmatic beauty's bizarre life and even stranger rebirth - somewhere between the sparkling gold coast glamour and flashing neon sleaze - are secret passions and buried solutions that could doom an overly inquisitive journalist with a tendency to leap before she looks. After all, this is Miami, where anything is possible . . . even dying twice.
