About
Inspired by actual events in Manatee County Florida,
Saving wildlife is an everyday, ever-changing challenge. Early summer is nesting time for the alligators in Florida’s Manasota State Park. Head Ranger Seth Grayson takes a group of visitors on a two-mile hike to Gator Hollow, a gathering place for hundreds of gators. Once there, the group makes a horrible discovery. A young man’s partial remains from an alligator attack are found along with several nests empty. It’s evident. Poachers have invaded the park.
Grayson, a Seminole Indian, values his heritage but chooses to live in the white man’s world. Alligators and all wildlife have special significance for him. He knows he will need help to catch whoever sent this young victim to his death.
Officer Liz Corday of Florida’s Conservation Commission arrives to help catch and prosecute the poachers. A devoted officer, her trust issues with men pose a possible relationship barrier between her and Seth.
Praise for this book
The author did an excellent undertaking of the description of the swap and the terrain where the Florida alligators roam. I could vision myself on the ground. The love story tied in well. The hero and heroine were a good team working the process to investigate the criminal activity.
For me this book was a real Page Turner and I could not put this book down. I live on the Westcoast of Florida and went to visit my sister on the East-coast of Florida so I started reading the book (The Alligator Dance) in the car while my husband was driving on “Alligator Alley”. I enjoyed learning a lot about this particular subject matter which I had very little knowledge about. So if you want to learn something new and also enjoy a mystery with some sweet romance in an easy reading style than I highly recommend this book.
