Travis McGee decided to spend a quiet evening on the deck of his houseboat. But one look at Cathy Kerr changed his mind. Her twenty-six-yearold eyes betrayed violent suffering and hopelessness and McGee just had to know why. Before Cathy's father died in prison, he'd hidden away valuable contraband. But not well enough to prevent frecklefaced villain Junior Allen from finding and stealing it. Now Allen was suddenly wealthy
- and Cathy was abused and alone. McGee would change all that. He'd take away whatever it was Allen had - for Cathy's sake as well as for Allen's previous and future female victims. And if it meant fighting the vile predator, he'd risk his life - even on a pitching sailboat in the middle of a
dark sea.
