Reality TV star Buck Nance incites a riot in a bar and vanishes in the melee. His agent Lane Coolman has been accidentally taken hostage by two petty criminals who now think they can turn a quick profit by ransoming an LA talent agent. The mystery of Buck’s disappearance draws in a range of characters from across the island including a redheaded con artist named Merry who, using a razor blade and a high-speed car has developed a signature way of luring in her victims.©2016 Carl Hiaasen (P)2016 W.F.

A first Hiaasan for me on audio and thoroughly enjoyed it
I've no plans to go to Florida - wouldn't want to be disappointed if it turned out not to full of crackpots and whack jobs!

Sunshine, mayhem & madness. What's not to like?

Quite a few characters to keep track of, but a good story that had me hooked.

Great story line

Lots of weaving layers and it kept my attention throughout. Easy on the ears and brain.

Lots of dry humour

I used to read all of Carl Hiaasen’s novels in the 1980s. For some reason I stopped reading them in the late 1990s, an occasional foray aside, despite always having always enjoyed his work. When 'Razor Girl' came up as an Audible deal of the day I was “in like Flynn”.

All the familiar ingredients were present and correct: a rich vein of dark humour, hapless and egotistical men, clever women, and some cynical comments on the local politics of Florida. All held together by the travails of the loveable Andrew Yancy who is variously trying to stop a neighbour building on land adjacent to his house, convincing his estranged love to come home, dealing with Merry Mansfield - a female con artist, trying to get his old job back (as a Monroe County Sheriff's detective), and plenty more besides.

The richly inventive plot delivers plenty of action, humour, local politics, observations on modern America and celebrity culture, and life in Key West, Florida. It was all supremely enjoyable.

I’m now keen to read those books I’ve missed out on since losing touch with Carl Hiaasen about 15-20 years ago.

4/5

Supremely enjoyable
