Description

During a midnight fishing trip, Travis McGee and his friend Meyer rescue a woman who has fallen from a bridge, drawing them into a dangerous web of deception, betrayal, and murder. As McGee investigates her shadowy past, he encounters criminals whose ruthless scheme reaches far beyond an apparent attempt on her life. Set against the vivid world of Florida’s waterways, the novel explores justice, greed, manipulation, and the uneasy boundaries between victim and predator. With its atmospheric setting, hard-boiled suspense, and morally complex characters, it showcases John D. MacDonald’s enduring skill as a master of crime fiction.
