Dalla seconda/terza di copertina:

AND NOT A PENNY MORE The storm is rising . . . In the second installment of the Bay Tanner mysteries, Bay is plunged into the world of international intrigue when old school friend Jordan von Brandt returns to South Carolina to bury her mother. Widowed socialite Leslie Herrington is found dead in her South American hotel room. Natural causes, the local authorities say. Murder insists her estranged daughter, who sets out on a campaign to enlist Bay’s help in proving it. Lined up in opposition are Jordan’s brothers, especially Trey—the perpetually broke but charming Hollywood hanger-on—who desperately needs the estate settled quickly. Bay resists becoming involved until she accidentally stumbles across a bizarre Web site that seems to support Jordan’s suspicions. Could her old school friend be right? Was Leslie Herrington only the latest victim of a cunning and vicious killer? Suddenly Bay finds herself sucked into a vortex of undercover Interpol agents, the glittering highlife of the moneyed elite, and the twisted mind of a monster. And over this backdrop of extortion, theft, and betrayal hang the frightening shadows of Bay’s own past and the looming threat of a killer hurricane.All around her, from the beaches of Hilton Head to the fabled islands of the Caribbean, the storm is rising.
