Sometimes the greatest threats come from within

Miami Jones is enjoying a spring break when a case lands on his desk from a most unexpected quarter: A local Palm Beach detective wants him to investigate threats against a star basketball athlete who has just been selected #1 in the draft.

Miami finds more hangers-on than one set of coattails can handle, and family and friends coming out of the woodwork for their cut of the action. But as he digs deeper and the suspects mount, Miami discovers that the greatest threats often come from within.
