Fever Beach leads us, 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.

Dale Figgo is the only hate-monger ever to be kicked out of the Proud Boys for being too dumb and incompetent. Now his already messy life is about to get more complicated, thanks to two formidable adversaries.
The first is Viva Morales, a clever woman recently taken to the cleaners by her ex-husband, now working at the supposedly philanthropic Mink Foundation and renting a room in Figgo's apartment; the second, Twilly Spree, a millionaire with an anger management problem, especially when it comes to those who deface the environment.

Together, Viva and Twilly are plunged into a mystery involving dark money and darker motives, one they are determined to solve. Into this web come a cavalcade of outrageous characters, from corrupt politicians to white power idiots, all of whose fates are bound together via Figgo in a tale that is both a vicious state-of-the-nation satire and a hilarious thriller.

From America's most acclaimed satirist and the author of the book that became the Apple+ hit Bad Monkey, Fever Beach is an unmissable skewering of American politics in all its ridiculousness.©2025 Carl Hiaasen (P)2025 W.F.

Another great Hiassen story. Worth the wait. Really enjoyed it although the performance wasn’t quite the same standard as previous titles.

If you haven't discovered Hiaasen yet, you don't know what you are missing.
If you have read his earlier works, you'll know you are in for another classic.

I won't try and summarise the plot. But once again, a full assortment of well defined characters and interweaving plots with swings at politics, corruption, environmentalism, and the state of America today. With the usual kidnapping, hit men, and assorted criminals we've come to expect.

Very funny, fast paced plot that moves along quickly. Excellent narrator who makes the different characters quite distinctive. I've loved almost all Hiaasen's novels and this is one of his best. Definitely worth a listen.

Absolutely brilliant!
