TWO HURRICANES. A CORRUPT INSURANCE SCAM. A TOWN ON THE EDGE.

Florida journalist Will Harper thought his latest story would be another exposé on crooked contractors. But when he digs deeper into a hurricane insurance scam, he discovers a plot as tangled as the mangroves and as treacherous as a storm surge.

When Ryan Dressler snaps after being shortchanged by his insurance company, his fury escalates—leading to a dark twist that leaves adjuster Bob Dickerson fearing for his life. Meanwhile, Will meets the Grimes family, who are struggling to rebuild after two storms and a system stacked against them. But when unlicensed contractors start prowling around in the dark, the fight for fairness turns into a fight for survival.

As Will’s ex-girlfriend Callie dives into the investigation, she lands herself in dangerous waters, and everyone seems to want her silenced. It’s a race against time, with Will determined to save the day once again—but in a conspiracy this deep, survival is never guaranteed.

Thievery is a high-stakes thriller that pulls readers into the heart of Florida’s underbelly, where greed runs as deep as the waters and justice is just one wrong step away.

A great read for fans of Wayne Stinnett, Carl Hiaasen, Tim Dorsey and John D. MacDonald.
