When SCUBA diver Ray Malliff fails to surface after a dive near California’s Catalina Island, Chicago insurance investigator, Henry Fox, is assigned to investigate the claim. A few weeks prior the missing man had purchased a half-million dollar insurance policy so the disappearance doesn’t pass the insurance Company’s smell test. It takes four murders, an accidental death and a suicide before Henry and his giant side-kick Jesse can expose the truth. The bodies pile up as Henry stumbles his way through Vegas mobsters, a maniacal hit man and a seductive widow whose part in the drama is as murky as the sea in which the SCUBA diver disappeared. The fast-paced action doesn’t let up until Henry bashes his way to the stunning conclusion.
