  • AT THE IMMEDIATE CONCLUSION OF DEATH IN PARADISE 

THE 305 GOES 007 - Crooks, crooked cops and corruption might be the obvious criminal activity, but it's the not so obvious that makes you wonder who your neighbors really are.  South Florida happens to be the perfect place for a spy to blend in and go unnoticed for years.  Suburban secret agents have been here since World War II.   From Nazi spies to Cuban spies we learn who's been watching us and sharing our secrets.
