Overview
Plenty of paper millionaires jumped off half-finished buildings in 1926 when the Florida land boom went bust. One such tycoon disappeared from a luxury ocean liner in the middle of the Atlantic Ocean. Was EQ Edmunds just another victim of his own greed-or was his disappearance the final and most stunning hoax of his stunt-filled career? Edmunds' widow, Nesta, left penniless and humiliated by his disappearance, doesn't believe he's dead. She has to scrape the bottom of the barrel to find a private eye willing to take on the case.PI Billy Heart has a chip on his shoulder and a skeleton that keeps banging on his closet door. He knows he should walk away from this case. But he's a sucker for Nesta's tears-and her red high heels.From the exotic mansions of Tampa's fabulous Bayshore Boulevard to the steamy underground tunnels and smoke-filled speakeasies of Ybor City, Billy Heart follows a trail of greed, lust, intrigue and danger to the surprising solution of this fascinating mystery based on a real-life disappearance that has never been solved.
