Story Locale: South Florida Series Overview: Lucas Davenport is a true maverick whether he's working for the law or skirting procedure, he utilizes his exceptional ability to get inside the mind of a killer, along with his select contacts in the government, the media, and the criminal underworld to get the job done. And when his case turns lethal, Davenport will need to bring in every asset he can claim, including a detective with a fundamentally criminal mind: Virgil Flowers. When the FBI's investigation stalls out, they call in Lucas Davenport. They're federal officers killed on the job, which means the case is the FBI's turf. None of it makes sense unless there's something hinky going on, and his hunch is proved right when all three Guardsmen who come out to investigate are shot and killed. It's a snazzy craft, slick and outfitted with extra horsepower, and is zipping along until it slows to pick up a surfaced diver…a diver who was apparently alone, without his own boat, in the middle of the ocean. An off-duty Coast Guardsman is fishing with his family when he calls in some suspicious behavior from a nearby boat.
