Publisher's Synopsis
What do you get when you mix a snake-handling reverend, a necrophiliac, a cop and an ex-con? Something perfectly twisted... Sound like the start of a bad joke? Not to Shane Monahan. The ex-con and newest recruit to the underground criminal investigation group, A.T.L. or Above the Law, has it bad for Collier County Deputy Beth Price. But ex-cons and cops don't mix, especially when this particular ex-con is looking at going back to prison for his involvement with A.T.L. All Beth wants is a fun distraction from the stress of her job and law school. She thinks she's found that when she meets Shane during an airboat tour through the Florida Everglades. But Shane's a felon, a man who could destroy her career as a deputy, and jeopardize her future as an attorney. She doesn't know what to do-until dead bodies start showing up around the county. When three abused corpses are found with snake remains inside them, the discovery brings a murderer out of retirement. The Reverend, as he calls himself, doesn't like his kills being mimicked, especially by a man who abuses the dead-after all, the Reverend does have a reputation to uphold and a congregation to scam. Now it's time to teach his copycat a deadly lesson...
