Phoebe Wong yearned to escape the dreary British winter, but her quest might come at a steep price. With her heart set on sun-kissed sunsets, tantalizing tacos, and refreshing margaritas, the exhausted forty-three-year-old single mother found solace in the idea of a tropical getaway. When her long-distance boyfriend in New York extended an invitation to meet him in Florida, Phoebe couldn't resist the temptation. Excitedly, she packed her bags, including her teething toddler, and boarded a plane bound for the Sunshine State. Upon arriving at her boyfriend's vacation home in Key West, she was met with a disheartening surprise—she had been robbed on her very first night. With no money, cards, or passports, Phoebe felt grateful for the kindness of the locals who came to her aid. At a local barbecue, she struck up a conversation with an old expat British businessman. As the night unfolded, her boyfriend finally arrived, apologetic for the delay. He took her out to a fancy seafood dinner, hoping to make up for the unfortunate incident. However, their evening took a sinister turn when the British expat was shot in the same restaurant's car park. Trapped in a job she didn't want, and with her boyfriend's delayed arrival raising suspicions, Phoebe realized that this place was darker and colder than London. She yearned to escape the danger that lurked around every corner.

Will Phoebe be able to summon the strength to protect herself and her daughter from the dangers that await? Will she find a way to break free from the clutches of this mysterious and perilous place? Only time will tell in this thrilling and suspenseful adventure that will keep readers on the edge of their seats. Perfect for fans of Gillian Flynn, Jennifer Hillier, and Colleen Hoover, "Key West" is a must-read book that will transport you to a world of danger, mystery, and intrigue. So, grab your copy and dive in, starting your adventure today!
