Dennis “Doom” Loomis served five years in prison for writing a book under the name of Eleanor Roosevelt. He found out his father died in a drowning accident. But was it really an accident? He goes to south Florida where the Staggerlee, his father’s sailboat is being kept. Doom finds out his father was part owner in a proposed development and now he has ownership. He falls for Rosalind, a scuba diver

The location of the book is south Florida. I love when I read a book and can recognize locations. My own city of Weeki Wachee is even mentioned. The characters are very developed and the story flows at a steady pace. It is written in the third person point of view and is very descriptive. There are murders and mayhem galore. There are a few mentions of the “N” word. If you like the Pono Hawkins series by Mike Bond, you will definitely enjoy this book.
