Florida Straits

Is Florida Too Hot for a New York Hustler?

Small-time hustler, Joey Goldman, is looking to make a killing away from the mean streets of New York City. The place to be is Florida's Key West, land of sleaze and sunshine. Tired of waiting for his mobster father to acknowledge his illegitimate issue, Joey decides to head south for the sun and a golden opportunity to make his mark. But breaking into the big time isn't just a matter of breaking new territory. And when his half-brother Gino turns up on the run, Joey's plans are hit for six.
