description: Against his ribs, a gun: a 9mm Beretta, a weapon for heroes or killers. Special Agent Joe Hope, Florida Department of Law Enforcement, is neither. He's just a man trying to do a dirty job--solving the Sinkhole Killings--a grisly string of serial murders. With a boss itching to fire him and a reputation to save, Joe banks everything on being the one to bring the killer in. When his ex-wife's teenage son brings Joe evidence connecting the Sinkhole murders to the horrifying death of an idealistic female wildlife officer, Joe strikes out for the heart of south Florida's backwater darkness. He is drawn deep into the doomed land of swamps and human savagery where right and wrong depend on who gets there first with the biggest gun. As the net tightens around the unknown killer and his haunted pursuer, Joe finds that it's his own life he's risking and that the crimes he must solve are his own.
