Phoebe has the modest dream of owning a Sno-Cone truck at the beach in Key West. Her would-be boyfriend, Nicky, also dreams small. All he wants is a decent gig as a guitar player in a bar, but they run afoul of a sleazy local cheat, a Miami gangster desperate to stay in business, and a murderous Cuban smuggler looking for a fall guy. They'll need a kind of smarts and chutzpah they never knew they had in order to keep their hopes, and themselves, alive. And maybe a cabin cruiser full of Key West luck.
