Now an Apple Original series from Ted Lasso Executive Producer Bill Lawrence and starring Vince Vaughn â¢Â A wickedly funny novel from the New York Times bestselling author of Squeeze Me in which the greedy, the corrupt, and the degraders of whatâs left of pristine Floridaânow, of the Bahamas as wellâget their comeuppance.
â[A] comedic marvel … [Hiaasen] hasnât written a novel this funny since Skinny Dip.ââThe New York Times
Andrew Yancyâlate of the Miami Police and soon-to-be-late of the Monroe County sheriffâs officeâhas a human arm in his freezer. Thereâs a logical (Hiaasenian) explanation for that, but not for how and why it parted from its shadowy owner. 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 (itâs not called the roach patrol for nothing). But firstâthis being Hiaasen countryâYancy 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; Yancyâs new true love, a kinky coroner; and the eponymous bad monkey, who with hilarious aplomb earns his place among Carl Hiaasenâs greatest characters.
