Take a trip to exotic South Florida with this dark, funny book that established Carl Hiaasen as one of the top mystery writers in the game.

The first sign of trouble is a Shriner's fez washed up on a Miami beach. The next is a suitcase containing the almost-legless body of the local chamber of commerce president found floating in a canal...

The locals are desperate to keep the murders under wraps and the tourist money flowing. But it will take a reporter-turned–private eye to make sense of a caper that mixes football players, politicians, and one very hungry crocodile in this classic mystery that GQ called “one of the top ten destination reads of all time.”

    I ran across this book- I knew the author wrote Hoot.., a young adult book that got Newberry recognition.. so I thought this might be a good read. Quirky characters: Skip, a disillusioned reporter, a former football pro who wants to be a rebel, guy who likes to blow things up, and a Native American anarchist joint together to try to drive people out of Florida… and one erstwhile price detective, a former girlfriend and a Beauty Queen round out the cast. A story of how the rebels are defeated, sometimes by dumb luck and sometimes by smart deduction, wrapped in humor- it’s a darn fun read!

    A book for the time we now live in. I know it’s fiction but I think it could really happen. Makes you think. Makes you reconsider the choices you make in life and the consequences they have. Another book read and loved by Carl Hiaason.

  • What a amazing read!

    Not up to Hiaasen’s best, but still very good. I’m never going to Florida for any reason.

    Carl Hiaasen is an expert at weaving a tale that captures the reader from beginning to end. This book was no exception. I thoroughly enjoyed reading it.

    Great story, lots of action, suspense, and humor. Wonderful characterizations, descriptions. Editing, however, leaves something to be desired - quite a few typos.

  • Good choice of book!
