LaBrava

FADE TO BLACK

Ex-secret service agent Joseph LaBrava had it all under control. South Miami Beach action. Easy living in an old Deco hotel. A new start as a portrait photographer.

Then he met Jean Shaw. A once-famous actress. Still soft, sexy, and seductive. The kind of woman who heats up fantasies. For LaBrava, she was a trip to paradise...and a trip down the bad side of trouble.

Because following right behind her white Cadillac were a redneck former cop whose specialty was hurting people, a hot-blooded Cuban whose passions were dancing and killing, and a .357 Magnum with LaBrava's name on it. Suddenly the scene was shifting from love to money -- a bizarre, big-bucks scam with LaBrava forced into the tough-guy role -- and with murder in the picture.
