Synopsis
Doc Ford returns to his stilt house on Dinkin's Bay to find an old friend and one-time lover waiting for him. Her real-estate developer husband has disappeared and been pronounced dead, and she's sure there's worse to follow-and she's right. Following the trail, Ford ends up deep in the Everglades, at the gates of a community presided over by a man named Bhagwan Shiva (formerly Jerry Singh). Shiva is big business, but that business has been a little shaky lately, and so he's come up with a scheme to enhance both his cash and his power. Of course, there's the possibility that some people could get hurt and the Everglades itself damaged, but Shiva smells a killing.
And if that should turn out to be literally, as well as figuratively, true...well, that's just too damned bad.
Replete with passion and rich, pungent prose and some of the best suspense characters anywhere in fiction, Everglades is the finest work yet from an extraordinary talent.

Randy Wayne White is the author of seventeen previous Doc Ford novels and four collections of nonfiction. He lives in an old house built on an Indian mound in Pineland, Florida.
From AudioFile
Doc Ford, marine biologist and sometime intelligence agent, is wallowing in depression, drinking too much, not exercising, and doing too much thinking. Then Sally Minster, an old friend comes to him for help; her husband has disappeared, and she refuses to believe he's dead. Thus begins a tale of cult religion, real estate schemes, and murder in the Florida Everglades. Dick Hill's staccato rhythm and tempo give great advantage to the story's action scenes. Using distinguishing voices that are easy to identify, he portrays a spectrum of characters and delivers sighs, laughter, and other emotions naturally. While there are many long introspective passages that Hill could have read more smoothly--his delivery works much better with the dialogue--all in all this is a good performance.
