Another instant classic from Carl Hiaasen—laugh-out-loud funny, tackling the current chaotic and polarized American culture (following in the path of Squeeze Me), with two wonderful Hiaasen heroes
.
Carl Hiaasen was born and raised in Florida. He is the author of fourteen previous novels, including the bestsellers Squeeze Me, Razor Girl, Star Island, Nature Girl, Skinny Dip, Sick Puppy, and Lucky You, and seven bestselling children’s books, Hoot, Flush, Scat, Chomp, Skink, and Squirm. His novel, Bad Monkey, was recently adapted into a hit series on Apple TV+ starring Vince Vaughn.
.
Carl Hiaasen has made quite a career as a best-selling novelist by lampooning his native Sunshine State. His latest, Fever Beach, begins with an errand that leads—in pure Hiaasen-style—into the depths of Florida at its most Floridian: a sun-soaked bastion of right-wing extremism, white power, greed, and corruption.  

.
A hapless hate-monger. Billionaire philanthropists with too much plastic surgery. A wildly ambitious (and corrupt) politician. An environmentalist with an anger management problem. In his wildest and most entertaining novel to date, Hiaasen plunges these outrageous (fictitious?) goons into a mystery involving dark money and darker motives and delivers them to their appropriate fates.
