Harry Caine, a licensed Florida PI operating his investigative agency in West Palm Beach, finds a way to attract big money clients. The Palm Beach kind of big money. His new client, Evans Enterprises, owns a network of car dealerships from West Palm Beach to Key Largo. The corporation finds itself under attack when used cars mysteriously explode, catch fire, or fail, due to a variety of other causes. Lawsuits proliferate and the negative and highly visible media coverage promises to destroy the company's business. Harry accepts the task of finding who and why someone is out to destroy Evans Enterprises. His investigation soon reveals a deeper, darker mystery fueled by envy, hate and revenge. A slow burning hate, motivated by an act of simple greed committed forty years earlier.
