Murder on the Purple Water

After a body is found on a Florida fishing boat, a vacationing PI and his wife must cast a wide net …

Pat Abbott is not about to be an accessory to murder, so he turns to another kind of captain: his friend on the force in New Orleans. They’ll have to debate their theories of the case before they can reel in the killer …
