On an
otherwise ordinary spring day in sunny Jacksonville, Florida, an unhinged gunman
shreds the fabric of a nation in yet another outburst of senseless gun
violence.
His
victims are children—innocents walking home from school in those final fleeting
days before the promise of spring break and time spent with family and friends.
When the
families of the loved and the lost unite in a push for meaningful reform in the
national gun laws, the National Rifle Association squelches their efforts with
a series of backroom dealings and political saber-rattling.
Nothing
changes; but, for so many, nothing will ever be the same again.
This is
Darren Torrance’s sudden reality—a life without his family in a world that no
longer makes sense.
But there
is something he can do. A change that
he can make in the names of his son
and his wife.
Every few
years, a celebration of opulence and excess known simply as the Gathering takes
place in the heart of the Florida Everglades. Similar to the infamous Bohemian
Grove meetings in California, the Gathering is a week-long celebration of
privilege and wealth as attendees shape political policy and forge business
deals.
Jackson
Ashcroft—the controversial and charismatic President of the NRA—is attending this
year and celebrating yet another successful anti-regulatory campaign season.
If Torrance
can utterly transform himself and blend into his surroundings in the River of
Grass, he just might be able to provide Ashcroft with the ultimate Everglades
survival experience.
Down In the Sawgrass Boneyard is Darren’s story of transformation and redemption, as vengeance blooms among the swamp lilies in this gritty thriller about the power and persistence of a father’s love for his family.
