It’s not a vacation until there’s a murder.
Fortune, Ida Belle, and Gertie are finally off to Florida on the vacation they’ve always talked about. Days filled with white sand, turquoise water, and fruity drinks are the only thing on the agenda. But when Gertie’s “hot date” turns up dead and she’s the number one suspect, they’re forced to hang up their bathing suits and shift to investigating mode.
They soon discover that Gertie’s beau was up to all kinds of shady behavior, leaving them with a long list of people who are happy he’s dead. But which one resorted to murder?
Can Jana DeLeon allow Fortune to have a stress free, body free holiday? Err the answer to that is NO!
Pretty much since Fortune, Ida Belle and Gertie admitted to each other their past/current lives they decided that once Fortune was safe they would head somewhere warm, drink drinks with funny fruit and umbrellas, wear swimsuits and just RELAX. The latter part manages to last until the first full morning when a) they see what Gertie is wearing and b) when Gertie almost drowns! (err losing her top at the same time), she was saved by Fortune and a more mature man, who asks Gertie out (Fortune and Ida Belle decide that staying in and sampling whisky is a better deal!). The problems really start the next day when the man turns up dead and the local buffoon, sorry police officer, decides that Gertie is the killer, the man turns out to be a scammer and Swamp Team 3 need to figure out which of his unhappy "clients" actually did the deed otherwise Gertie will be spending the rest of her life in a Florida jail cell!
