The first body is of a young woman, found on a Minneapolis riverbank, her throat cut, her body scourged and put on display. Whoever did this, Lucas Davenport knows, is pushed by brain chemistry. There is something wrong with him. This isn't a bad love affair. The second body is found three weeks later, in a farmhouse six miles south. Same condition, same display--except this time it is a man. Nothing to link the two victims, nothing to indicate that the killings end here. "This guy "Lucas said. He took a deep breath, let it out as a sigh. "This guy is going to bust our chops." And soon he is going to do far, far worse than that

Travis McGee #11 In "Dress Her In Indigo", Travis McGee promises lovely Bix Bowie's father that he will find out the details of her death. The dead girl's trail takes him to Mexico, into the sad, bizarre world of the wandering drug freaks who find haven south of the border. But somebody else is on the same trail -- somebody who dispenses death with sudden, savage efficiency, and who makes the always intrepid McGee wish he wasn't quite so intrepid.
