Escape from the Everglades is the first book in the High Water series and blends contemporary mystery and suspense, dramatic situations, and high adventure that both boys and girls will love.

A park ranger’s son hates the Everglades, and he thinks he’ll just die if he doesn't escape Southern Florida soon . . . and he’s right. After Parker Buckman is mauled and nearly killed by an alligator, he sees the glades as a place of death. All he wants to do is get out of the area, and he’s convinced he won’t truly be okay until he does. But he can’t leave until he finds a friend who goes missing.

Escaping a bad situation isn’t a matter of a geographical change. Sometimes the best way to a brighter future is to face the darkness of your past.

From the Back Cover

He needs to find his friend. But that means facing gators . . . again.
After Parker Buckman is mauled and nearly killed by an alligator in the Florida Everglades, he sees his new town as a place of death.

All he wants to do is get out of the area, and he’s convinced he won’t truly be okay until he does. When his park ranger father gets a transfer, Parker feels his escape is finally within reach.

But when a friend goes missing in the Glades, Parker knows he can’t leave until he finds her―or proof she’s really dead.

Parker’s search takes him deep into the wilds, where he comes face-to-face with a rogue monster gator.

Will Parker ever escape the death-grip of the Glades? Or will he find the strength to break free? Sometimes the only escape from danger isn’t running away but facing it head-on.

Tim Shoemaker is the award-winning author of the Code of Silence series and the stand-alone suspense, Easy Target. Tim is a popular speaker, especially for school assemblies. When he isn’t on the speaking and teaching circuit, he’s busy working with students and writing more great stories!
