A KILLING IN THE KEYS

After relocating to Key West, Wade Nevlin, the protagonist in Jacksonville Judas, finds himself embroiled in a new mystery. A widower, a recovering alcoholic, and a charter boat captain, Wade falls for a mystifying woman named Melina. When José Cisneros, a Miami resident, is murdered in Key West and found by Melina’s doorstep, Melina and Wade are entangled in a chain of puzzling circumstances that complicate their burgeoning romance. And then there’s a drug overdose, an assault, a poisoning, a shooting, and smuggling by the Cuban Cartel…further muddying the water. The colorful cast of English and Spanish speakers either have checkered pasts, deny knowing the victim, or the circumstances surrounding the murder, making it difficult for Key West and Miami detectives to discern the truth from a viable host of suspects.

Will the Killing in the Keys ever be solved? Can Wade and Melina’s love story survive all the setbacks they encounter?
