When Paradise isn't quite what it seems...

Nancy Tremayne has landed the job of her dreams in London. But this is 1955 and her husband, Leo, an art expert, has a project in the Caribbean and expects her to travel with him.


Reluctantly, she packs her suitcase for Malfuego, but almost as soon as she arrives on the island, witnesses a brutal attack on a defenceless young man. And there is worse to come. Much worse.


When the same man is murdered, Nancy is asked for help and, with her husband's assistant, Archie, gradually discovers the dark side of the island. And a dangerous enemy.


Nancy finds her killer, but along the way the sexual tension simmering between herself and Archie finally bursts into the open. After Malfuego, life will never again be the same
