Clayton Deese loves his barbeques and his killing jobs. They are easy things to do and the money is good. As a small thin man, Deese finds hurting jobs harder to do; still his boss Roger Smith, a former lawyer, and now Louisiana's top loan shark, pays well, so Deese takes it on.
Tracking down victim Howell Paine is easy, but best-laid plans often do not go as expected and bloody evidence gets left behind. When police attempt to track down Deese, they find evidence of worse crimes and multiple bodies at his home deep in the Louisiana swamp.
U.S. Marshall Lucas Davenport, along with Rae Givens and Bob Matees, is called in to help Sandro Tremanty and his FBI team. Being independently wealthy, Lucas only wants to go after badass killers and Deese easily fits the bill, especially as the Marshalls realize his unusual taste for human flesh. Yet with few clues, how will they find him?
