In a land without law, how far do you go to protect the innocent? The year is 1995. On the remote Caribbean island of St. Stephie a seaplane delivers a tall man clad in a pale linen suit. Paul Summers is fleeing a lifetime of lost battles. Released from his marriage and career he's living out his Jimmy Buffett-inspired dream of escaping to "saint somewhere, southeast of disorder" and hence his arrival at the Hotel Caribe Billfish Club, a resort as exotic and elegant as it's location on the distant edge of the islands.While napping on the sands of a turquoise cove Summers is woken by the lilting English of Lark Johnson, an Oxford-educated marine biologist of African descent, who asks "Why did they hurt you?", referring to scars Summers bears. That night the resort sponsors a grand fiesta. There Paul is introduced to Nikki Saunders, former supermodel, now owner-operator of Tiki Charters, a diving and big-game fishing operation, and her sidekick Yolanda "Yoyo" Magana. And on a subsequent moonlit night as Summers and Niki initiate their romance they discover the shark-mauled body of Ophelia Johnson, 14, sister to Lark. When Summers discovers that sharks were the least of the girl's problems, murders begin to bloom like jasmine. What develops is a Force 5 hurricane of political intrigue, corruption and violent confrontation. And for Summers to find his "one particular harbor", he must survive the storm.
