Summary

Summary

Marine biologist and former secret operative Doc Ford is lazily poling his skiff along Southwest Florida's flat copper sea in search of sea anemones when he runs into the body of the most hated man on Sanibel Island—Marvin Rios. And when the Island's simplest and sweetest resident is arrested for the murder, Doc heads straight into the heart of the sunshine state's dark side—to save his friend from being framed, and to save Sanibel Island from a rising tide of land-grab schemes, blood money, and violence.

“[White] continues to portray the world of mangrove swamp, gulf, hummock islands, and tidal inlets with palpable description. The characters are deftly drawn and the villain is someone you’ll love to hate.” Rocky Mountain News
“Politics and land development are pivotal elements in this taut, suspenseful tale as White makes the lure of the sea understandable to landlubbers and presents a panoramic view of southwest Florida.” Publishers Weekly
