A young woman named Beatrice Bowie (Bix) dies in an automobile crash on a lonely mountain road in Mexico. The father wants to know more about the time she spent in Mexico and who she was. He has lost his wife, is now confined to a wheelchair and since he did not spend more time with business than with his daughter, he wants to discover who his daughter really was. Travis McGee and Fred Meyer are hired to travel to Mexico to find the answers. The trip finds them chasing down any clue they can find.

Fans of Travis McGee will enjoy this sad and kinky mystery. An ill friend of Meyers wants to find out what happened to his daughter who dropped out of college and went to Mexico with some "friends." She was reported dead, but the more McGee investigates, the more confusing the case becomes.

This book screams the 60's! It is so refreshing to go back in time by reading such a great mystery as only MacDonald can write.
