Flying to Antigua has its ups and downs - the job was not half as glamorous as people thought it was. But flight attendant Jaime Jones convinces herself, not for the first time, the hard slog is worth it. Landing on the idyllic Caribbean island, surrounded by sandy beaches, sunshine and copious amounts of rum, what can possibly go wrong?It isn’t long before events take a downward turn, when an armed robbery on the crew bus is followed by a deadly discovery on a stretch of private beach the next morning.The crew become prime suspects in the ensuing investigation, especially Jaime, after the police make a dubious discovery from her past. Realising the need to take action before she’s detained indefinitely, Jaime begins to carry out some sleuthing of her own. Surely she isn’t the only one with something to hide?Relying on her powers of perception (and a few of her crime novels) Jaime attempts to nail a killer before the mother of all storms hits and halts her inquiries.Can she trust anyone on this most bumpy of rides? Although relishing the opportunity to solve a real-life crime, Jaime cannot wait to put ’doors to manual’ on this turbulent trip.
