Did the architect/engineer of a new high-rise beachfront condo shoot himself over remorse when a balcony fell, killing two people? Or did someone else pull the trigger to solve a bigger problem? That's the dilemma retired Air Force OSI agent Greg McKenzie and his wife, Jill, face at Perdido Key, FL. When a couple of hoods beat him up and warn him to butt out, Greg knows its time to put a face on a murderer. Jill takes advantage of the opportunity to make a difference as she digs for answers in places where Greg's penchant for shaking the bushes leaves tempers smoldering. Working together as a team, they follow the serpentine trail that leads to a fateful confrontation.
