Hetta Coffey Synopsis: Just Add Water by Jinx Schwartz is the first book in the Hetta Coffey series. Hetta Coffey is a globe-trotting civil engineer with a swath of failed multi-national affairs in her jet stream. Plying the San Francisco waterfront, trolling for triceps, her attention is snagged by a parade of passing yachts – especially their predominantly male skippers – and experiences a champagne-induced epiphany… In spite of a spectacular ignorance of all things nautical, Hetta buys her dream boat, but a shadowy stalker, an inconvenient body, and Hetta’s own self-destructiveness lower the success rate of her goal.
