About this audiobook
One week on the bay. Attention with a price on it.
Jace flew south for a paid fragrance campaign at the Maravel, a white hotel on the bay: linen clothes, deep water, and a choreographed kiss at the pool with a model named Malik. The owner, Adrian Valcourt, watches from the rail. Afterward he tells Jace he was better before he knew anyone was looking, and Jace wants very badly to believe that kind of attention is care.
On his first night in Miami, a ride back to the hotel turns into a car whose doors will not open from his side. By the next morning Adrian's husband, Danny, is dead in his car outside the house, and the call Jace let ring during dinner is one he can never return.
Then a sculptor named Maribel plays him a recording, and a dead man's words about coming back for his tools stop sounding like a family joke. Every time Jace says no, something answers: an access list changes, a fee is held, a photograph goes out with his face on it.
