Somewhere in a lush, sun-drenched state preserve in Palm Glade, Florida, a young couple in a parked car wakes from a night of drunken carousing to find the body of a headless woman submerged in the area known as Fisheating Creek.
Meanwhile, Jim Longworth, a detective with the Florida Department of Law Enforcement, is about to break 80 in a golf game against Carlos Sanchez, his medical examiner, when he gets word of the body from his partner, Mike Ogletree. Ogletree believes the woman's death may be connected to a spray-painted message, "Okeechobee Southerners Are Sub-Human," which has been popping up all over town.
Longworth breaks from his game (but not before cordoning off the area as a crime scene to preserve his winning streak) and heads back to the station. Once there, he learns that his partner has interviewed Erin and Justin, the teenage couple who found the body, and sent Justin home. He theorizes that whoever killed the woman did so elsewhere, dumping the body in Fisheating Creek so that an alligator could destroy the evidence.
Later that afternoon, Longworth investigates the crime scene, poking at the murky creek with his nine iron, and gets bitten by an alligator in the process. He ends up at the hospital where he meets and attempts to flirt with Callie, a tough, pretty health care worker who dresses his wound, but seems to have no interest in anything more.
At the station again, Longworth and Ogletree go over the case and run tests on the victim. Then, looking for a woman's perspective on the evidence he's gathered, Longworth meets Callie outside the hospital and woos into her a date to discuss the case.
Once again on the beat, Longworth interviews Justin and learns that Erin, the girl he was with that night at the creek, is actually his deceased brother's girlfriend. As it turns out, Justin's brother was killed on his motorcycle by a tourist from Maine, an obvious sore spot for the teen.
