Description

Format: Mass Market Paperback, 288pp. ISBN: 0312983158 Publisher: St. Martin's Press Pub. Date: October 2002 "Dauphin Island, Alabama: Three college students arrive at Jason Summers's beach house for the last big party of the season. Nausea strikes hard before the first shot of tequila is ever poured: blood, everywhere. They have found the bodies." "Reporters and politicos scramble for position. Three of the victims belong to the Beautiful People: a smooth entrepreneur, a beauty queen, a news anchor. The fourth, quiet, sincere Rebecca Jordan, is forgotten in the frenzy that surrounds the killings." "Rebecca's mother, disgusted by the desecration of her daughter's memory, seeks help from private investigator Jack Delmas. He reluctantly accepts, and finds that beneath a quaint community's surface lurk debauched jet-setters, international smugglers, and cunning, unpredictable murderers." "It is a world where innocence can be swallowed whole, and where the best intentions of people like Rebecca Jordan can distort into grisly bloodbaths like the one that consumed her." To win justice for Rebecca, Delmas allies with Jimbo McInnis, an oversized, fast-living, Hemmingway-quoting deputy sheriff. Together they must delve behind the madness to find the truth.
