Government agent-turned-marine biologist Doc Ford sails an endless sea of questions when he agrees to investigate a death from the past.
Years ago, off Florida s Gulf Coast, a teenaged girl found an ancient gold medallion.
Then, she began having nightmares.
Then she was found hanging from a tree.
Now, years later, the girl s mother is being terrorized with break-ins, phone calls with no one there and her daughter s grave has been dug up.
Somebody wants that medallion.
The search for answers will lead Doc through a shadowy world of ancient ritual and modern corruption, to an evil that was born in the past but lives in the present .
