Dive into the Shadows of Florida's Underworld... Where the Sun Shines Brightest, the Secrets Run Deepest.

Retired operative Jack Kincaid just wanted peace—a quiet life on his boat, the Sea Witch, chasing tarpon and forgetting the past. But when a high-powered lawyer delivers an "unwelcome job" from billionaire Silas Thorne, Kincaid is dragged back into a world of deception, danger, and deadly stakes.

A Simple Investigation Turns Deadly

Thorne's luxury resorts are bleeding money, but the truth is far darker than embezzlement. What starts as a financial probe uncovers a global arms syndicate operating under the glittering façade of five-star hotels. Russian arms dealer Sergei Zukhov is using Thorne's properties to smuggle high-tech weaponry—and the auction for a stolen Pentagon arsenal is already underway.

Betrayal at Every Turn

From the sun-drenched marinas of South Florida to the bloodstained decks of a billionaire's yacht, Kincaid navigates a labyrinth of lies. A murdered informant. A duplicitous journalist. A phantom financier with ties to the highest echelons of power. Every ally could be an enemy, and every shadow hides a new threat.

A Race Against Time

As Kincaid infiltrates Zukhov's inner circle, he discovers a plot that could destabilize nations. The clock is ticking, the bodies are piling up, and the only way out is through the heart of the storm. With the feds closing in and a kill squad on his trail, Kincaid must outmaneuver the most ruthless players in the game—or become another casualty in Florida's endless war of secrets.
