Successions

A card game in 1950 in the backroom of a liquor store in New Orleans. Five thousand acres won on a bluff that never got called. A black Mercedes pulls into the crushed shell lot. A wax seal nobody has seen broken in fifteen years. Beach Caraway only wanted to run his grandfather's resort. What he found was a second drawer, an uncle he never knew, and a fortune built on something money can't buy. The families are arriving.
The Bureau is watching. And somewhere on the property, someone is reporting back to a man who wants what cannot be taken. The Caraway remembers what it protects. The Gulf remembers longer. A card game in 1950, in the back room of a liquor store in New Orleans, built an empire nobody was meant to see. Beach Caraway came home to run his grandfather's resort. Five thousand acres of Gulf Coast land, a family business sixty years in the making, and a quiet life by the water.
That's all he wanted. A black Mercedes pulled into the crushed-shell lot. Delivering a wax-sealed envelope nobody had broken in fifteen years. It cracked open a world Beach never knew existed. His grandfather, Big Jake Caraway, built more than a resort. He built Corsivo. A network of loyalty, favors, and fortune spanning three continents. Hidden in plain sight behind lemon pie and Gulf views. Now it's awake.
Everyone who helped build it wants to know if Jake "Beach" Caraway will be the man his grandfather thought he would be. An uncle he never knew existed arrives with a wooden box of secrets. Four Italian families descend on The Caraway. Five hundred years of history between them. The FBI wants answers. Someone within The Caraway is reporting to a man who has spent years trying to take what cannot be bought.
Big Jake always said loyalty was the only thing that mattered. Beach is about to find out exactly what that loyalty costs - and what he's willing to do to protect it. Successions is the second novel in the Beach Caraway series. A Gulf Coast legacy thriller about family, fortune, and the quiet violence of old debts when they come due. Beach Caraway does not look for trouble. Trouble has his address
