Cayman Islands-based underwater photographer Fin allows a film company to use RIO's perfect facility as the setting for a big budget movie in exchange for hefty fees. Along with the movie, RIO is hosting an exhibition of real-life sea relics and ocean treasures featured in the picture. The most valuable exhibit, the twelve Anderson Sea Stars, is worth millions.

As the killer continues attacking other members of the RIO team and the film crew, the case has Detective Dane Scott stumped, and Fin knows she'll have to solve the crime herself or watch her beloved oceanographic institute go under.
