On a scorching July night in Phoenix, five people feel the heat and the pull of fate, which brings them to the South Mountain Village gated community. Jeremy and Jennifer go there to swim. Lieutenant Johnson investigates an accident. Karen prepares an open house as a real estate agent, and Donald, a land developer, meets some business associates. At the surface, it seems like the simple, usual events of any night. But beneath their actions and choices, there is the driving force of what they all want more than anything: to skim away the dirt from their lives like a pool vacuum. Perhaps they want it so much, they bring the skimmer to life...and death. In the desert, creatures go crazy when it feels hot like Hell, but is it Hell or America? Swankie Publishing presents a story of avant-garde True Crime, Skimmer: An Inky Edges tale.
