Brilliant forensic pathologist Edward Jenner returns in this explosive sequel to Precious Blood --an edgy, electrifying thriller set in a small-town coastal community where nothing is as it seems.
Edward Jenner, introduced in Precious Blood , has survived the horrific ordeal of the Inquisitor serial killings in New York, but not the political fallout. His state medical license suspended, Jenner finds himself banished to Douglas County in coastal Florida, working as a medical examiner in the balmy seaside resort of Port Fontaine.
But there's a seamy underside to picturesque Douglas County. First Jenner finds the bodies of a murdered man and woman decaying in a sunken car. Then an anonymous call in the middle of the night leads him to a gruesome discovery in the heart of the Everglades. He finds traces of a shadowy criminal conspiracy, and soon learns that he can trust no one.
With his life on the line, Jenner refuses to walk away and let the murderers go...
