Jimm Juree, Mitte dreißig und Kriminalreporterin bei einer thailändischen Zeitung, lebt mit ihrer gesamten exzentrischen Familie unter einem Dach...

Kriminalreporterin Jimm Juree leidet unter Provinzblues. Nachdem ihre Mutter die fragwürdige Idee hatte, ein renovierungsbedürftiges Hotel zu kaufen, lebt die exzentrische Sippe in einem verschlafenen Nest - und Jimm sieht ihre Karrierechancen schwinden. Doch eines Morgens schlagen Jimms Hunde beim Gassigehen Alarm: Irgendein Strandgut ist äußerst interessant, nur leider zu groß zum Apportieren.

Seit Jimm Juree mit ihrer schrägen Sippe in das Küstendorf Maprao im Süden Thailands übergesiedelt ist, vermisst sie die Lichter der Stadt. Am meisten aber vermisst sie ihre Karriere als Reporterin. Schweren Herzens muss sie nun mit Aufträgen für das kleine Lokalblatt vorliebnehmen. Ihr aktueller Job: den Engländer Conrad Coralbank interviewen, seines Zeichens Autor erfolgreicher Kriminalromane. Kurz darauf verschwinden plötzlich mehrere Frauen, unter ihnen auch Coralbanks Gattin. Und plötzlich hat Jimm es nicht nur mit Vermisstenfällen und einem potenziellen Serienkiller zu tun, sondern auch mit einem kapitalen Sturm, der direkt auf Maprao zusteuert.
