Reseña del editor

At Key West's Raquet Club, Chuck Chandler yields to temptation once again, this time for Clare Carras. Suddenly, Chuck is in over his head and suspected of murder. Former New York homicide detective, Tommy Sculley and his partner, Daryl Haynes, follow the murder trail across the West coast.

Contraportada

Tennis pro Chuck Chandler has choked on more than one occasion – first at Wimbledon, then as a womanising coach at posh tennis clubs around the country. He has his final chance to get it right at Key West’s Old Island Racquet Club, but yields to temptation once more – unfortunately for the beautiful and 'married', Clare Carras. Suddenly, the easygoing Chuck is suspected of murder and on the verge of losing not only his modest career and all his possessions, but his freedom, and maybe even his life, as well.

Enter Tommy Sculley, a former New York homicide detective with a job on the Key West force, and his partner Daryl Haynes. The two detectives find themselves struggling to stay afloat in a shark infested investigation that stretches from the Florida Keys to Los Angeles and back, involving not only the treacherous Clare, but a furious mob boss as well, who is determined to get back whatever belongs to him, and doesn’t care who he has to kill to do it.

"Wood knows how to keep the narrative pace in overdrive... an entertaining page turner."
NEW YORK TIMES BOOK REVIEW

“Stuart Woods is a slam bang no nonsense story teller who doesn’t disappoint.”
