In his richest and most intimate literary adventure to date, Speer Morgan takes us back to the hot summer of 1934, when Prohibition has ended and FDR is cruising the Caribbean for his one-month vacation. Tom Freshour, the controversial assistant prosecutor, is about to speed out of western Arkansas for a long- overdue holiday. His plans are modest. Freshour wants only to fish and relax, to ease the heat and escape the swarm of cases he is expected to oversee. But before he can steal away, an eccentric and enigmatic collector of Indian artefacts is brutally murdered. When the beautiful and brilliant Rainy Davis arrives to claim the estate, Freshour is suddenly drawn into a tense and violent investigation of murder, political scandal, and some very private affairs. Told with Morgan's renowned flair for history, and centred on the discovery and exploitation of the most significant pre-Columbian temple mound ever found in North America, this is an engrossing, sexy, and suspenseful experience.
