Nestled between the laid-back lifestyle of No Name Key and the raucous nightlife of Miami and South Beach, Coconut Grove stands as a tropical oasis with a distinct Bohemian flair. However, a seedy underside has recently emerged along the Grove's waterfront, preying on adventurous young women.
Amidst the glitz and glamour, a thief has stolen a fortune in Aztec emeralds. Jesse McDermitt must first determine if the victim herself is a thief. The trail of clues leads him to evidence that the thief may be involved in a string of more heinous crimes.
Jesse and his computer-savvy friend, Chyrel, enlist the help of the recently returned Charity Styles, and the trio go "undercover" at a floating swinger's party headed for the Bahamas. This party may well be a front for torture and murder.
When a sudden violent storm strikes Stiltsville, Jesse finds himself alone on the ocean, trying to recover the treasure and put a murderer behind bars. However, he must first win the battle with Mother Nature.
The story is set against the backdrop of Coconut Grove, a vibrant and diverse community that offers a stark contrast to the dark underbelly of criminal activity. Jesse, a former Marine, must navigate this complex web of deceit and danger to uncover the truth and bring the perpetrators to justice.
The narrative weaves together elements of mystery, suspense, and the power of nature, creating a gripping and immersive reading experience. As Jesse delves deeper into the case, he must confront his own personal demons and the moral dilemmas that arise in the pursuit of the truth.
The supporting characters, Chyrel and Charity Styles, add depth and complexity to the story, each bringing their unique skills and perspectives to the investigation. The tension builds as the trio races against time to uncover the truth and stop the perpetrators before they can strike again.
Ultimately, "Coconut Grove" is a captivating tale that explores the contrast between the alluring beauty of the tropical setting and the dark, unforgiving world of crime and corruption. Jesse's journey to uncover the truth and restore justice is a thrilling and thought-provoking exploration of the human condition and the power of perseverance in the face of adversity.
