Quarter Past Five

Ramona Brewer elected to leave her fishing village town in the Bahamas for a safer, more secure area, when it became obvious the mafia was taking over control of the island sanctuary. She had turned thirty-one years old just two months ago and decided this small town in New Jersey offered what she was seeking. An only child, Ramona was the offspring of a native-born mother and a Dutch immigrant fisherman father. For three weeks now, the dark-skinned beauty had prowled the city where its low crime rate, beautiful beaches, and attractive men offered women of her caliber a promise of romance and adventure. This city held a secret, one that nobody knew about, and Ramona suddenly stumbled into the hands of a man on a mission, a sometimes killer, on the 1937 New Jersey shore where life or death was decided quickly-and quietly.
