"Marlon Brandon, heir to a wealthy and influential political family, has brought a film crew to [Greenville, Mississippi] to film a drama about the 1927 flood that submerged a great deal of [the town]. Marlon wants the world to know the story of the flood--and the heroic role the Brandon ancestors played in rescuing dozens of local residents from drowning. Or at least that was the plan until he disappeared. If this weren't concerning enough, the situation appears even more dire when a severed foot is discovered in the Mississippi River, and clues indicate that Marlon may have fallen victim to a freak bull shark attack. But as rumors swirl around the Delta about Marlon's motives for making the film, Sarah Booth and Tinkie have to wonder whether a shark is to blame, or an equally ferocious human offender"--,Provided by publisher.
