The Gulf waters are calm, the beach deserted but for Seychelle, Beauregard and a collapsed orange life raft. Within the raft they find no bodies, no treasure, but a ship’s logbook full of stories and adventures. Seychelle has found a purpose, something to fill the void left by the death of her father. Determined, she follows this trail, searching for the owner, Chianti, if she survived. Abandoning the futile search along the Gulf Coast, Seychelle heads to the Caribbean, but her questions draw attention in Sint Maarten and Jamaica. She gets to know folk who use their yachts to smuggle grass and is soon part of their extended family. However, it is the early ’70s and the American authorities are bearing down, pressuring island governments. The tide is turning. Taking small packages of cocaine into the States is a lot easier and more profitable than bales of cannabis.
Did Chianti survive? In whom can Seychelle trust?
