Does a deaf criminal investigator from Austin, TX have an ulterior motive for "vacationing" in Terlingua? Also, as he settles in, a series of murders occur in Sportfish Landing, Florida. Is a vigilante at work, or is it something else? Add a rescued coyote to the story, along with a young woman with blueberry-colored eyes who reveals a long-kept secret. Stir in a live oak forest full of Spanish moss, magic, and mystery; an alligator-infested lake, a "weird old man of the swamp," a gregarious Latino sheriff, and a cast of other characters you'll swear you know; and what you get is a mystery, an adventure, and a human-interest story you won't want to put down.
