She refuses to let her Key Largo slice of paradise-a haven for non-mainstream couples-die. But when a serial killer begins attacking her guests-leaving a single dreadlock on each victim-everything spins out of control, including what's left of her family. Hides a killer... After her brother's experience with police brutality, the last place she wants to turn to for help is law enforcement. Scarred mentally by a deadly force incident, Detective Will Peterson has avoided homicide cases. But only he has the skills to drill into the elusive killer's twisted mind. And it just got personal... When a hurricane strikes, exposing the horrible truth behind Delia's losses and threatening everything she holds dear, trusting Will may be her only hope. Are they up to the challenge?
