About the Book

Travis McGee isn't your typical knight in shining armour. He only works when his cash runs out, and his rule is simple: He'll help you find whatever was taken from you, as long as he can keep half.

When Travis McGee enters the prosperous town of Fort Courtney he quickly realises that something's not quite right. Here to rescue the suicidal daughter of a deceased friend, Travis is shocked by the string of murders and suicides that is taking over the town.

Then, just when it seems that things can't get any stranger, Travis becomes the lead suspect in the murder of a local nurse. To save the young woman, he's going to have to save himself first . . .
