Publisher's Synopsis
The sun was rising over Moat County, Florida, when Sheriff Call was found killed on the highway. A local redneck was convicted and set to fry. Then Ward James, a hotshot investigative reporter, returns to his hometown with a death row femme fatale who promises him the story of the decade. She's armed with explosive evidence and aims to freeand meether convicted "fianc." With Ward's disillusioned younger brother Jack as their driver, they barrel down Florida's back roads and seamy places in search of the Story, racing flat out into a shocking head-on collision between character and fate as truth takes a backseat to headline news.
