Description

South Florida in the late 1960’s and early 1970’s is in turmoil. South Beach, now a ‘Mecca’ for the “Rich and Famous’ is a ‘ghetto’ of retirement hotels and cheap restaurants; the Cuban Revolution, and waves of immigration, have changed the culture of Miami forever. Dade County police detective, Captain Eduardo Gonzalez is challenged by a series of gruesome ‘armed home invasion’ murders, and the political pressure is on - there are few leads. Fifty miles north of Miami in ‘trendy’ Palm Beach, art dealer Peter Cooper has been talked into making the presentation of a ‘pricy’ painting, by Georgia O’Keefe, at a birthday party, hosted by a nouveau riche couple, Bruce and Rebecca Hirsch. But all is not well, the armed home invasion team of a rogue government contract killer, Monkeyto, and his buddies, Paco and Chee Chee, have targeted Bruce and Rebecca, as they have chosen most of their victims, by reading the South Florida ‘Glitter Mags’ and the ‘Social Sections’ of Miami and Palm Beach newspapers.
