When a man too good to live meets a man too evil to
die, all Tate’s Hell breaks loose.
Set along is the Forgotten Coast of Northwest Florida before the blight of over-development buried the beaches beneath towering walls of time-shared condominiums. The story’s action ranges from the snow white dunes of the beach to the snake-infested swamps of Tate’s Hell, from bloody murder to the freshness of new love, and involves dogs, fishing and boats.
Bill Steele shouldn’t have been there that night. He should have been at home, with his wife Laura and their children: Anne, who had just completed her first year of college, Robbie, a rising senior in high school, and Willa Grace, their late surprise, a six-year-old daddy’s girl. The family’s life centers around a boat that Bill had built himself and named for his wife, ‘The Lady Lu’, a wooden hulled cabin cruiser in a classic design.
He was there that night, fated to a bloody rendezvous with LeRoi King, an unrepentantly evil man. On the banks of a river and in the dark of night, they locked in mortal combat over the life of an innocent.
A grievously wounded LeRoi escapes down the river, leaving left Bill for dead. But when LeRoi leaves the river, he enters Tate’s Hell.
Devastated by the loss of her husband, Laura struggles to rebuild her life without him. However, her children rebel when she decides they can no longer afford to keep Lady Lu. In the face of their opposition, she agrees to try to save the boat by chartering it for fishing.
The only captain willing to take the gamble is a luckless young roustabout named Nick Goodwin. Orphaned at an early age and raised on the water, Nick has nothing and so has nothing to lose.
Laura’s heart goes out to the wild child and Nick finds himself surrounded by the family he never had. Together, they renovate the Lady Lu into a vintage replica and begin running fishing charters in the bays of North-west Florida and into the Gulf of Mexico.
Lost and dying in the depths of Tate’s Hell, LeRoi’s guardian angel appears; by a sardonic demon named Seth. Living off the grid, between life and death, and out of time, LeRoi is nursed back to health only to find himself enslaved.
LeRoi sexual perversions come back to haunt him when he is left in the care of Mata Hairy, a large woman of unclean habits. Her perverted sexual appetites overwhelm LeRoi and leave him a broken man.
LeRoi’s position sinks even lower when Seth’s dog, Jack, returns. Jack is the biggest damn dog LeRoi has ever seen and definitely dominant.
As romance blossoms between Nick and Anne, LeRoi is driven from the campfire by flaming whips. He is thrown back into life and straight back into Tate’s Hell. Chased by dogs through the swamps until he falls off a cliff into the river, LeRoi is terrified by a snake, stung by wasps, and breaks his nose in a stolen car. He doggedly makes his way to the coast, obsessed with the idea of stealing a boat and going directly across the Gulf.
Anne and Nick have only begun to acknowledge their feelings for each other when LeRoi re-enters their lives. Mentally unhinged, he terrorizes the family before threatening Anne to force Nick to take him home aboard the Lady Lu despite the approaching storm. Aboard the Lady Lu, tossed by the waves and illuminated by flashes of lightning, Nick matches wits and muscle with the crazed killer. With the boat burning, Anne unconscious, and Nick beaten down, there is a rip in the fabric of life and spirits cross over.
