    [synopsis] => On a much needed vacation with his daughter Regan and close friend Oz in Puerto Rico, John Bekker finds his vacation cut short when, on a hot night, he can't sleep and takes some fresh air on the balcony of his hotel room. Bekker's hotel is directly across the street from the famed Luquillo Beach. The ocean is invisible in the dark, but street lights illuminate the sidewalks. A man is calmly smoking a cigarette on the sidewalk, seemingly minding his own business. After a few minutes, a second man joins the smoker. They speak for a few seconds and then walk down to the beach and into total darkness. The following morning, Bekker is surprised to see dozens of police officers on the beach. A newspaper story details the murder of one of Puerto Rico's most famous and beloved businessmen and philanthropists, a man they call Joe Italiano. Bekker decides to speak with the detective in charge of the investigation, Gerardo Escalante, and tell him what he witnessed from his hotel room balcony. With their instant camaraderie, Bekker decides to stay in Puerto Rico and help Escalante with the investigation to learn who killed Joe Italiano... and why? Bekker soon discovers the path to the truth is a very dangerous road.
