Dead Slow: A Chase Gordon Tropical Thriller

By Douglas Pratt

When Chase Gordon pulls a lifeless body from the water behind his marina, he figures his day can't get much worse. But the slit throat says otherwise.

Before the police even know her name, Chase is pulled into the shadows of West Palm Beach, where high society cocktails mix with low-rent crime, and the right favor can make a body vanish. But this isn't just a one-off murder. It's the tip of a far more dangerous operation-one that links the dead woman to a human trafficking ring operating just out of sight of the tourists and trust funds.

Caught between a growing investigation, a circle of powerful enemies, and a few too many people who want him quiet, Chase has to navigate a world where justice is currency-and no one's dealing fair.

Gritty, fast-paced, and soaked in saltwater suspense, Dead Slow is a razor-edged coastal noir perfect for fans of Don Winslow, John D. MacDonald, and those who know the real Florida doesn't make postcards.
