Between the gentle trade winds and the thriving tourist trade, the year-round summer days and the languid nights, the living is easy in Key West. That´s just the way P.I. Gideon Lowry likes it. These days, when he´s not bird-dogging AWOL witnesses for the state attorney´s office, Gideon´s at the keyboard, giving them Gershwin and Porter to chase away the blues and help chase down the booze. That´s where Virginia Murphy finds him. Shrouded in somber white, she´s come back to Key West to lay a real ghost to rest - by finding out who murdered her sister, Lila, nearly 40 years before. For Gideon, it´s a gig that leads him down the darker side of memory lane - where haunting snatches of his own past, like the timeless melodies he plays, linger on. Secrets linger there, too. But they´re buried as deeply as the paradise that was Florida´s landscape, now entombed beneath the concrete of Bayard Cement. That ubiquitous family business - and the wealthy, influential clan behind it - are a wall that Gideon slams up against harder and harder as he investigates his hometown´s hidden history. That´s when Gideon takes the pledge - to unlock the shocking truth that Key West has concealed too long beneath its sunny, sultry surface, and to face a killer´s music and dance. 1.
