معلومات عن هذا الكتاب الإلكتروني
A beautiful woman leads PI Mike Shayne onto a deadly island with a sordid past, and he must decide if his guide is a damsel in distress or a femme fatale?
A tampered-with air tank almost sends PI Mike Shayne into the deep for good during his scuba diving session. So much for taking a break from all his troubles; he's now wading into someone else's. That someone is the gorgeous Kitty Sims, who was the target of the sabotage-gone-wrong.
She's embroiled in a battle royale over an inheritance left to her by her former boss, a notorious rumrunner, who was the last of the big Prohibition figures. In his will, he left the island that he owned, Key Gaspar, to Kitty and four others, and now—one by one—they're dying off. The Key wasn't even worth that much until the rumors of a buried pirate treasure surfaced and a real estate developer made an enormous bid . . . that expires in a few days.
Desperate to keep the alluring Kitty alive until then, Shayne finds himself struggling to separate business from pleasure, while dealing with treasure hunters, greedy siblings, and scandalous senior citizens. It's sink or swim for Mike Shayne . . .
