Going back home again isn’t just hard, it’s murder.
Emotionally adrift, lonely after his wife’s death, Boise Montague does the thing no one should ever do: he goes back home again.
Boise remembered the Caribbean home of his childhood – in St. Thomas, Virgin Islands – as a paradise. But when his best friend is murdered and the case quickly buried by local police, Boise realizes how far paradise has fallen.
With the aid of Dana Goode, a local reporter investigating the kidnapping of a real estate mogul’s daughter, Boise goes on the hunt for his friend’s killer. But he’ll find more than he bargained for – much more. Because in the once-sleepy island city of Charlotte Amalie, sun, sand, and surf have been replaced by madness, mayhem, and murder – and his friend’s death was just a warm-up.
Going home again can literally be murder – especially when your home has changed from Heaven on Earth… to a Dark Paradise.
