LaBrava

Joe LaBrava, ex-secret service agent turned photographer, meets a former movie star who he admired in a Miami crisis center. She is being terrorized by thugs, giving him a chance to play the hero. Joe LaBrava first fell in love with femme fatale movie queen Jean Shaw in a darkened theater when he was twelve. Now he's finally meeting his dream woman in the flesh, albeit in a rundown Miami crisis center. Cleaned up and sober, though, she still makes LaBrava's heart race. And now that Jean's being terrorized by redneck thug, Richard Nobles, and his slimy Marielito partner, Cundo Rey, Joe has a golden opportunity to play the hero. Or he could wind up the patsy -- or dead -- in the final reel
