Jake Essenger had spent decades running Essenger Produce Co., a family-owned business that had been a cornerstone of the South Florida produce market for generations. The business was more than just a job for Jake—it was his legacy, his livelihood, and a vital connection to the community. The produce market had its own rhythm, dictated by the unpredictable cycles of supply and demand, weather patterns, and the volatile nature of fresh food logistics. The expectations and responsibilities he took on as he matured prepared him for the adult journey he would follow.

The chaotic carnival atmosphere of wholesale produce market operating in early morning darkness collides with an expanding network of organized crime. Jake Essenger tries to protect his family and legacy business against the onslaught of crooked politicians, extortion, and murder by the dark underbelly of organized crime.

The produce market throughout history remains a carnival of characters and occasional chaos. First, it operates at night from midnight through the dawn hours, winding down midafternoon. The upside-down cycle of activity is out of sync with the rest of life’s reality. Under the glare of lights shrouded by darkness, the loud banter and frenetic atmosphere is further embellished by the products and the people. The latter cast of characters are so diverse and sometimes unbelievable, that it defies easy description.

This is a story that profoundly changed Jake's life, faith and understanding of his family in ways he never imagined. But first let me tell you how he grew up. An unlikely family environment in a wholesale produce market was his playground, with many diverse role models to follow in childhood. Sure, there was a small coterie of friends with whom there was plenty of sports, foolishness, school and childish adventures shared.
