But when severed body parts are discovered floating in a slough, his summer of proving himself takes on new meaning. Something deadly is lurking in the deep murky waterways of the Delta. Now the daunting task of containing the living incarnation of a mythical creature falls to Calvin and his ragtag posse of oddball characters.
