Waterside Productions Announces Rick Outzen's New Book "Blood in the Water"
S For Story/10440308
"An appealing hero leads a spirited cast in this diverting crime tale." --Kirkus Review
CARDIFF BY THE SEA, Calif. - s4story -- Waterside Productions is proud to announce the release of Blood in the Water by Rick Outzen (ISBN: 978-1-941768-50-1).
In the sequel to his award-winning debut novel, City of Grudges, author Rick Outzen brings back alt-weekly newspaper publisher Walker Holmes, his dog Big Boy and a cast of unforgettable characters as they continue to expose corruption in Pensacola, Florida.
Walker Holmes' world has fallen apart yet again—his girlfriend has left him, an expose on human trafficking has led to his source being brutally murdered, and his nemesis, Sheriff Ron Frost, appears to be unstoppable in his pursuit of a third term.
The alt-weekly newspaper publisher's life becomes even more chaotic when a flood shuts down Pensacola, leaving Holmes's entire staff stranded in his apartment. Before the town can cope with the destruction, the county jail explodes.
Somehow Holmes must get his act together—stop his binge drinking, win back the support of his staff and friends, stave off a hostile takeover of his newspaper and figure out what and who caused the deadly blast. But his investigation is unearthing dangerous connections to the Dixie Mafia, the Ku Klux Klan and decades of backroom deals that have fattened the bank accounts of a few powerful families.

Before he is done, plenty of blood will be in the water. Holmes hopes none of it is his.
Like his protagonist, author Rick Outzen is a publisher of the Pensacola newspaper, Inweekly, which he founded in 1999. Much of his personal experiences as a newspaper publisher in Pensacola has been channeled into his novels, which gives it much of its freshness and veracity.
Rick can be found online at his paper's website inweekly.net, his blog ricksblog.biz and author website rickoutzen.com.
