One rain-lashing night, Melanie Truslow's father--a former French
officer in Vietnam--fell off the McClenny Pier near his North
Florida home and was drowned. Now his large house, and its ghosts,
are hers. As she begins to settle into her new surroundings, she
tries to understand the accident of his death and to reconstruct
the life of the man who had left her mother before Melanie was
born. Her only clues lie within the house's filthy basement--a room
with blacked-out windows, chicken bones and cigarette butts strewn
on the floor, and stacks of homemade pornographic videos narrated
by a scarred and cynical French journalist.
Leaving Miami for the sunny shores of Panama City was supposed to
be a good thing for the Rankin family. Vicky has just earned her
private detective license. Her husband Rick has landed a job as
manager of a motel, where he can write his westerns in peace. And
maybe now their teen-age son Rusty will outgrow the rebellious
phase he's going through. But things aren't going to be that
simple. Instead, they are drawn into the nefarious doings of Snag,
proprietor of a mysterious museum on the edge of town where boards
creak, cadavers reek, and laughter echoes down from the rafters.
Literary suspense from Anne Petty and P. V. LeForge. Shrimpboat
captain Carla Conway thought her life was enough of a mess before
she found the body of her old nanny tossed like a rag doll into the
belfry of a long-abandoned church. With the help of her crusty
first mate Comer-and little from the sheriff-she investigates the
old woman's death. What she finds takes her deep into the myths and
legends of the Florida swamps-and into the mystery of her own
origin.
