A cool November evening heats up fast when a 170 foot megayacht catches fire at the Fort Lauderdale boat show.

Left behind is a multi-million dollar crime scene, a dead body, and a lot of questions.

Detective Adria Hill was tired of dressing up for prostitution stings, but complaining hadn’t gotten her anywhere.  Not until she was forced to make a politically embarrassing arrest did her superiors decide that maybe this was a good time for a change.

Freshly reassigned to Homicide, and over the objections of her new captain, she is put on the high-profile case of the boat show fire.  With no experience and no support from her co-workers, she has to deal with a lack of evidence, a sick mother, and a suspended Sheriff’s deputy who is pursuing his own special revenge fantasy.  She eventually finds an ally in Luc, a fraud investigator sent by the French insurance company.  Together, they work to unravel the mystery of the fire, the murder, and Adria’s own enigmatic family history.
