Leo isn't looking for trouble when he and Rebecca, his forensic pathologist girlfriend, escape from Seattle for a few days of relaxation - it just finds him. An old friend has purchased some choice property in North America's only rainforest, and his posting of No Trespassing signs has incurred the wrath of every boater, hunter, and fisherman for miles around.

And it's just Waterman's luck to be in the epicenter of this murderous mess at the very moment it bursts into flames.
