Illusions of Paradise
The island of San Saypaz' is everything sexy, street-smart reporter Toni Jackson dreamed paradise would be-palm trees, white sand beaches, crystal blue waters, and breathtaking sunsets. Finding love with Detective Jameyson Tolliver is icing on the cake. But when a young woman is brutally murdered, Toni discovers paradise has a dark side. Jameyson's boss, the police chief, may have had a hand in the killing. Evidence disappears, and the vicious crime lord charged with the murder walks. There's a cover-up going on. Nothing is what it seems, people aren't who they appear to be. Toni's determination to uncover the truth comes at a steep price-her sources start turning up dead. Fearing for her life, she flees the island. But someone has plans for her, and paradise may well become a purgatory from which there is no escape!
