Even though she is involved with McKenzie and Keller in the investigation into Adam’s death, Fleming’s top priority is identifying Reggie Robinson’s killer, and her search is aimed at two individuals: ruthless drug peddler Buster and local drug kingpin Lester Shimkus.

Kris Keller has to abandon his work in Granite County because he is called back home to Shrimpers Bay, Florida where his infant son has been taken in a slider crime. Keller has to deal with a sinister character he calls Deep Voice and plays a dangerous game to get his son back.
