The quaint coastal town of Port St. Joe, FL isn't the kind of place where people go around getting stabbed to death.

So, when Jake Bellamy - an insurance agent and beloved father - is found murdered in the dewy grass of a local park, it comes as a bit of a shock.

Now it's up to Evan Caldwell, the new Sheriff and recent transplant, to solve the case. All he wants to do is live peacefully on his boat and tend to his comatose wife, but that's easier said than done when he's tasked with solving the murder of a man with no enemies.

Evan struggles to find a motive for the brutal slaying, but when the killer strikes a second time, even the theories he thought he had fall apart. The only thing he knows for sure is that no one will be safe in Port St. Joe until he closes this case.

This is the second book in the Still Waters series; character-driven suspense filled with rich, coastal atmosphere and dry humor.
