The book is about a man named Jim, who forms a strong bond with Michelle only to soon lose her. Michelle leaves a great wealth to Jim. There are many questions that Jim needs the answers too. Along the way, Jim discovers that Michelle had been slowly poisoned. During Jim's investigation, he finds a photo that Michelle had hidden. The photo of seven, as Jim called it, was dated November 22, 1968. Jim recognizes the date as being five years from JFK's assassination. Jim also recognizes one of the faces in the photo as his old next-door neighbor from his family's house, the ex-president of Cuba. While searching Michelle's money trail, Jim meets the New York mob boss that controls all the US East Coast and owns Nassau's Paradise Island, Club Royal. The mob boss takes a liking to Jim and sets Jim up to meet his daughter Jena—the princess of the Dark Side.
