Malice in Pinderland - Softcover

When Malice in Pinderland is made into a major movie its stars will most likely be Hugh Grant and Halle Berry. So as you read this light hearted romantic novel, keep these two stars in your thoughts. David (the Hugh Grant role) is a likeable scoundrel from London who is persuaded to leave town and 'get lost' for a while. He picks Spanish Wells, an island in the Bahamas, as his get away location. On the flight to the Bahamas he is seated next to Melanie (the Halle Berry role) who is returning home after graduating from University as a lawyer. David settles into Spanish Wells where one day he observes one of the fishing boats unloading its cargo of lobster tails, when the job is concluded the crew is paid off in cash. Lots of cash! David cannot resist the temptation and plots a bank heist. He's successful but winds up with millions of Bahamian dollars. He hatches a scheme to exchange these dollars that takes them on a trip to Las Vegas, Bermuda, London and back to the Bahamas. Of course they fall in love along the way but their romance is far from the conventional.

Derek Hawkins was born and raised in London where he attended London University before emigrating to Canada. He has traveled extensively throughout the Bahamas and the world, finally settling down in Spanish Wells to live and operate a fish farm and fish hatchery.
