Publisher's Note
Wildlife agent Rachel Porter is called to investigate a dead alligator found chained to the bathtub of a murdered hooker. She realizes that the gator did not die from the gunshot wounds in its head but was killed by a drug overdose from the heroin-stuffed condoms packed into its stomach. Rachel soon finds herself pursued by corrupt politicians, drag queens and a sexy police detective while trying to solve the murder.

Industry reviews
A disillusioned actress moves from New York to Louisiana to work as a federal Fish and Wildlife agent and finds herself hip-deep in alligators, poachers and murder in this vivid debut mystery by freelance journalist Speart, who specializes in wildlife enforcement issues. Rachel Porter is drawn into the brutal murder of a prostitute when she discovers that the woman's alligator is also dead. Although Rachel's crabby supervisor, another sexy but enigmatic police detective and the entrenched old-boy network seem determined to relegate Rachel to the sidelines, she plunges ahead with her investigation straight into deadly peril. The writing is palpably atmospheric ("the air, heavy with humidity, broke like a giant sponge that had been squeezed"), and the brooding swamp itself becomes a memorable character. This isn't a whodunit the identity of the killer is revealed early on but Speart nevertheless manages to maintain both tension and action throughout. The reader can't help but root for world-weary Rachel and her damaged friends, especially her self-deprecating transvestite landlord, as they struggle to make sense of a capricious world. (Sept.)
