Blurb: 
Three Glorious Weeks on a Romantic Caribbean Island . . .

Mike Shayne had just come out of the hospital and was taking his three broken ribs on a much needed holiday. But before his plane left Miami's airport, the holiday turned into a holocaust.

After all, no good citizen could refuse the U.S. Customs. And all they wanted Mike to do was break up a smuggling ring, solve a murder, and at the same time see that the next shipment went through so they'd get credit for the seizure.

Oh, and to really put him in with the gang land out with the island police, they'd even send out a nice little "wanted" poster on him.

A simple favor. They'd give him time, maybe even a few days if he was lucky, if he wasn't in jail, if he wasn't dead . . .
