A death rocks the Gulf Coast town of Port Leo, Texas. Beach-bum-turned-judge Whit Mosley is summoned to a yacht where the black-sheep son of a senator lies dead. Was it suicide, fuelled by a family tragedy? Or did an obsessed killer use the dead man as a pawn in a twisted game?
Texan judge Whit Mosley has opened an inquest into the discovery of human remains at Black Jack Point. Buried with the bodies are clues to a shadowy world of ruthless treasure-hunters, double-crossing businessmen and money-hungry sharks - all chasing a long-lost fortune in gold and emeralds.
Thirty years ago, Ellen Mosley vanished into the criminal underworld with $500,000 of the Mob's money, leaving behind her husband and young children. With his father near death, Judge Whit Mosley launches a search for his mother and finds her framed for murder and in trouble for stealing money from crime lords again - this time millions of dollars. He has one impossible chance to save Ellen - now known as Eve: take her on the run, outsmart a gang of sophisticated killers, and find the missing millions. Caught in a nightmare of double crosses and vicious schemers, Whit turns his back on law and order for the one person he most wants to trust but knows the least - a dangerous woman who may be plotting the cruellest deception of all.
