"Excellent book! Takes place in the Florida everglades in 1910. A fictionalized telling of the death of Edgar Watson. Makes you feel like you are right there in the everglades back in 1910. It's told by several different characters but never Mr. watson himself."
"Great story - based on the true account of the murder of E. J. Watson in Chokoloskee, Florida around the turn of the 20th century. Great story for anyone, but particularly for those of us fascinated with Old Florida."
"Loved the book. The descriptions of the islands and the land surrounding them, the customs and living arrangements, the heat and humidity...........I could feel, see, smell it all. The story, based on what few known facts, is so intense. All I can say is that news travels fast even in isolated areas I was amazed."
