IKE EVANS is the king of 1959 Miami Beach and “uneasy lies the head that wears the crown.” Ike is locked in a life and death struggle with his suddenly not-so-silent partner, mob boss Ben “The Butcher” Diamond. Ike realizes that everything bad, everything wrong in his life began when, in desperation, he took Ben Diamond’s money to build his dream hotel, The Miramar Playa. Ike, seeing there is no way he can live with, no way he can survive this mob cancer, vows to rid himself of the Butcher… or die trying. He will risk everything, freedom and family, to win back the Miramar Playa and in the process learn the truth in the proverb – what good is it for a man to gain the world but lose
his soul?
