From the funniest important writer in America comes a tale that is gleefully zany and incisively sharp and now available in mass market for the first time ( Miami Herald ).
But first-this being Hiaasen country-Yancy must negotiate an obstacle course of wildly unpredictable events with a crew of even more wildly unpredictable characters, including his just-ex lover, a hot-blooded fugitive from Kansas; the twitchy widow of the frozen arm; two avariciously optimistic real-estate speculators; the Bahamian voodoo witch known as the Dragon Queen, whose suitors are blinded unto death by her peculiar charms
Yancy\'s new true love, a kinky coroner; and the eponymous bad monkey-who just may be one of Carl Hiaasen\'s greatest characters..
Yancy thinks the boating-accident/shark-luncheon explanation is full of holes, and if he can prove murder, the sheriff might rescue him from his grisly Health Inspector gig (it\'s not called the roach patrol for nothing).
There\'s a logical (Hiaasenian) explanation for that, but not for how and why it parted from its shadowy owner.
Andrew Yancy-late of the Miami Police and soon-to-be-late of the Monroe County sheriff\'s office-has a human arm in his freezer.
