Vivacious dancer, Mary Collins is trapped in a vendetta between the bizarre French Baron Mouquet, a metaphysical artist (who spends weekends aboard his yacht using flattery and flowery language to seduce innocent women and prostitutes alike), and Rocco Scarfitti, the handsome chief of the Italian mafia in Naples. On the night of the Paris Open Ballroom Championship, Collins vanishes . . . and it is up to her dance partner, Andrew Marrish, to find her, but, first, the former Bondi lifesaver, who is weak of character, must address past and present demons to find himself and, somehow, resurrect his sunken spirit. After the murder of Rocco's beloved father, Joe, vengeance is thrust in young Rocco's heart like a spike but, back then, he was a mere child, and would wait many agonising years for revenge. Set in Paris, the emotional charged characters in this adventure easily grip the reader in a fast-paced, daring and suspense-filled journey that takes many unexpected twists and turns, before heading down a path to crashing waves that lash the pier and the windswept shores of the Mediterranean Sea.
