Publisher's Synopsis
There's a strip of land along the South Orange County coastline that's called "The California Riviera." Lavish mansions dot the hillsides, looking out over golden beaches and a glistening aquamarine ocean. It takes money to live here, and lots of it. And where there's money, there's intrigue; and sometimes where there's intrigue, there's murder. That's the dilemma George Davenport steps into when he rescues a local heiress on the verge of suicide. Davenport is an ex-SEAL who manages to live on the outside edges of the good life, keeping a low profile while doing odd jobs for shady characters. When he takes the troubled woman under his wing, he doesn't realize the situation he's getting into, or the lengths he'll have to go to protect her. As he works his way through this unexpected minefield, he gets more and more involved in a tangled web of treachery, danger and deceit--and as far as Davenport can see, there's no way out.
