Descrição da editora
Serge Storms, that lovable thermonuclear vigilante, has been scattering corpses behind him for more than a decade. The authorities notice the body count, and send a task force to track down Serge. Could his luck finally have run out?
Meanwhile, armed with his perpetually baked sidekick, Coleman, Serge decides to resurrect his online travel-advice website where you, too, can learn how to experience his home state of Florida through the eyes of a fugitive.
Off they go, blogging along a getaway route through the state's most remote back roads and bars, where the number of cadavers begins stacking up like Serge's website hits. Clues and questions mount . . . Who are all the women being photographed in the swamp? And what made Coleman draw on his face with Magic Markers?
In other words, welcome to Tim Dorsey's slice of America – where nobody gets out unscathed and untanned!
PUBLISHERS WEEKLY
In Dorsey's madcap 13th novel featuring vigilante serial killer Serge A. Storms (after Gator A-Go-Go), Serge gets engaged in a scheme cooked up by his faithful sidekick, Coleman, who hopes to attract tourists to Florida by offering theme vacations: "My first theme vacation: the tourist fugitive.' You come down here and pretend to be on the lam." Those on the gleefully maniacal Serge's trail include a conniving lawyer gulled into thinking Serge has the key to Al Capone's lost treasure, a Florida Department of Law Enforcement task force, and Serge's personal Javert, the obsessive, dubiously lucid but insightful Agent Mahoney. Dorsey cheerfully rejoices in Florida's colorful history and in the triumph of absurdity and anarchy over law and propriety. His police are no better than Keystone Kops, while tempering his deranged protagonist's taste for complex murder is Serge's unerring ability to select worthy targets. An unnecessary final revelation aside, series fans will be pleased.
