Gator Bait, Louisiana is a small quiet town where neighbors help one another and the biggest crimes are drunk and disorderly conducts and domestics. When a resident calls Deputy Dorie Berrenger out to her home to get an alligator out of her pool, she sees he has a backpack in his mouth. When she gets the pack away from the alligator, she finds inside a finger, heroin and plenty of cash in it. Not long after she files her report, DEA Agent Richard Starke arrives in town.
The fingerprint belongs to Shawn Roland, a deal maker for the Herbert family when it comes to hard drugs. Richard has been chasing him for eight years and this time he intends to arrest Roland. However he first has to learn the realities of small town bayou life where outsiders are considered alligator bait as someone local is working with the felon and trying to kill the Agent and the Deputy.
The principal protagonists bristle like stray cats when they first meet, but it is not long after that they hit the sheets and soon fall in love. The romantic police procedural is fantastic due to the eccentric residents of Gator Bait who add depth to the tale of the local and the stressed out visitor struggling with a killer and worse a killer love.
