Pulitzer Prize-winning journalist Carl Hiaasen has staked out his own territory in the world of crime fiction. Set in the neon world of south Florida, his New York Times best-selling novels are colored with broad bands of zany humor and offbeat suspense.

In big stakes bass fishing tournaments, contestants will do anything to win. Maybe that's why there is a corpse floating in Coon Bog. Now it's up to R J Decker, novice private investigator, to find out who was dying to get the biggest fish. Help comes in the unlikely form of Skink, a half-mad hermit with a taste for road kill.

Filled with lures, loot, and an armed pit-bull, this is a story that could only be concocted by the czar of Florida noir fiction. As he has in other Hiaasen novels, including Stormy Weather and Strip Tease, George Wilson's narration highlights the madcap pacing of this ride on the wild side of the sunset.

Reviews

"The cast of bizarre characters and the suspenseful events confirm Hiaasen's reputation for creating singular villains and heroes. While he's probably unpopular among some fellow citizens in his home state, he will certainly please readers who appreciate the Swiftian wit in his cautionary tales." (Publishers Weekly)

"The action is swift, and there are some very funny scenes." (Library Journal)
