Della by Sally J. Ling

"She sashayed into my office on a hot steamy Monday morning before I'd had my first cup of joe, her hips swaying to some Caribbean beat only she could hear." Palm Beach P.I. Drake T. Marlow finally has his first client--Della Carmichael--a rich, seductive beauty who doesn't know who she is. Tasked with unraveling her twisted past, Drake faces Prohibition-era rum runners, a mammoth thug, a visit to Florida's mental hospital, and political intrigue, all while juggling a potential romance. But some powerful people want Della's past to remain a secret and will do anything to keep the truth buried. Set against the backdrop of 1930s Florida, Della is a Palm Beach noir mystery full of history and intrigue.
