Florida author Steve
Ruediger has just published a new thriller, PS:
I'm Innocent. which is now available through Barnesandnoble.com,
Amazon, and hundreds of other sources. It comes in hardcover, softcover, and a
Nook edition. It will soon be available for Kindle.
The novel begins on a
Southwest Florida beach. As a new employee for the Sanibel Island Environmental
Conservancy in Florida, Lizzie Grant thinks she has it made. She is helping to
preserve wildlife and working on a Florida beach. Life is finally good – but it
won’t stay that way for long.
One night while
researching sea turtles on the beach, Lizzie sees illegal aliens being brought
ashore by a smuggler. Her accidental observation leads to her being threatened
and stalked by the smuggler until he suddenly shows up dead in her apartment,
and Lizzie is wanted for his murder.
With the help of a
semi-retired Mafia don named Joey, Lizzie tries to uncover evidence to clear
her name. She eventually finds out the illegal aliens are being used as slave
labor on a farm next to her boyfriend’s wildlife refuge, where he keeps Agnes,
a friendly Florida panther, and other large cats, who are not so friendly.
Lizzie becomes a
prisoner on the slave labor farm, where her life is in danger. But if she
escapes from the farm she could face the electric chair.
Pursued by police and by
men who want to kill her, Lizzie is running out of time. Will Lizzie find the
strength and courage to fight her way free and prove her innocence?
