Sean Bannister is a loner who lives by himself with his faithful old dog Bruce, on a lonely, isolated peninsula on the Gulf of Mexico. One night, during a violent storm, he catches sight of a lone sailor in a tiny wooden rowboat, skilfully manoeuvring his little vessel over the massive whitecaps and onto the beach below Sean's house. Once on the beach, the sailor takes two large plastic-wrapped parcels from his craft and drags them onto the sand and up into the rocky headland. Next morning Sean notices that the little boat is still anchored in the same place. He and Bruce wander down to the beach to investigate. After tracing some footprints in the sand they make a gruesome discovery that frightens Sean to the core. His discovery brings back some ghastly memories of five years ago when he was a hedonistic reporter in New York, working for the Daily Telegraph. From that moment on, Sean's sordid past seems to follow him wherever he goes. It leads him on a quest for justice and retribution that takes him into the homes of evil drug-dealers, corrupt senators and attorneys at law. Sean soon comes to the realisation that evil and corruption permeate society from bottom to top. And it is most prevalent in the ivory towers and lavish mansions of the rich and powerful. He learns, to his peril, that the richer and more powerful the criminals are, the more dangerous and deadly they will become. His quest for justice takes him on a journey down into Mexico and then back along the Gulf, through Baton Gouge, Houston and finally Galveston. Galveston, Sean discovers, is not a good place to die.
