About this listen

What happens when a group of new money upstarts attempt to take over Palm Beach’s most venerable, old guard, club? A battle royale where every rule in the book is thrown out the window.

Labeled ’nouveau entertainers', and worse, this gang, including a rich actor, a bawdy talk show host, two rock stars, and a billionaire rag trader, want what they’re told they can’t have... and are prepared to pay top dollar for it. But, if that doesn’t work, they’re going to fight like hell for it.

And before too long it gets nasty…and deadly. That’s when Palm Beach homicide detectives, Charlie Crawford and Mort Ott, step in. Turns out they’ve got a horse in the race, but last thing they want to do is let it show.

“A highly entertaining and amusing ride." - Kirkus Reviews

"Taut and efficient. It's a pleasure to watch craftsmen at work, and that describes the author as well as the cops." - Booklist
