The Secret of Rosalita Flats

Cal's a hapless watchmaker. Marina's a beautiful scuba instructor. They were friends as kids. Now, not so much. Together they'll solve the secret of Rosalita Flats. If the sharks don't get them first. The Secret of Rosalita Flats is the story of a man trying to unload the football-shaped house he inherited, while dodging the backwater Blacktip Island's quirky collection of con artists, smugglers and other ne'er-do-wells: an ornery housekeeper who refuses to be fired, a rum-soaked attorney with his own agenda, a chair-wielding resort manager who thinks he's an avenging angel, and a self-styled psychic who may be able to see the future.
There's also a mysterious someone-or something-trying to scare Cal off the island. Cal has to figure out what his old man was mixed up in, fast, if he's to sell the house and get off the crazy little rock alive. Written with Hiaasen-esque humor, The Secret of Rosalita Flats is a beguiling mystery for anyone who's ever dreamed of chucking it all and running off to the Caribbean. From the author of the award-finalist Blacktip Island.
