Joey Perrone is a woman with a mission, for she's just been pushed overboard from a cruise liner into the icy Atlantic Ocean by Chaz, her less-than-caring husband - and survived to tell the tale.
She knows that Chaz is not the brightest marine scientist in the world - hell, he can't even work out which way the Gulf Stream runs. And if there's one place he hates it's the Florida Everglades, an area he's supposed to be working to protect. Chaz is on to something though, and it's something so big and so lucrative that it's worth killing for.
Joey turns to the man who's pulled her from the sea: former cop, current loner, Mick Stranahan. And with a little help from her friends, Mick's dog, and a few of Chaz's enemies, they hit on a scheme that should drive Chaz mad, while allowing Joey to get even.
'This is a full-throttle ride through the warped politics of Florida by America's finest satirical novelist.' --- (Observer).
'I leap on every Hiaasen book the moment it's published.' --- Lynne Truss (author of Eats, Shoots & Leaves).

"A beautiful book... It will pass into that borderland where some of the best-loved books in the English tongue hold their immortality, on the shelf with Treasure Island, and Dumas and Dickens and Muting on the Bounty." --- New York Herald Tribune It seems Ken can't do anything right. He loses saddle blankets and breaks reins... but then comes the worst news yet: a report card so bad that he has to repeat a grade. How can you tame the dreamy mind of a boy who stares out of the window instead of taking an exam? Enter Flicka, the chestnut filly with a wild spirit. Over the course of one magical summer, both will learn the meaning of responsibility, courage, and, ultimately, friendship. |
