An angry Jake Lassiter goes on the trail of millions in negotiable bonds ripped off from his favorite client, octogenarian Sam Kazdoy. There's a more sinister turn when Jake's old buddy, Berto Zaldivar, a lawyer-turned-smuggler, ends up dead.
The search for clues leads Lassiter to a menacing professional windsurfer and his companion Lila Summers, a champion athlete and lethal femme fatale. Determined to recover the missing money and discover who killed his friend, Jake's detective work takes him from Miami to Maui via Bimini, and ultimately ends in an explosive finale in which he learns lessons never taught on the football field or in the courtroom.
A thriller as fast as the wind, a bracing rush as breathtaking as hitting the Gulf waters on a chill December morning.
