BOOK: Skin Tight

Skin Tight
Carl Hiassen

Oh how I adore Carl Hiaasen. He's wonderfully twisted after living in South Florida for so long covering the local political scene. That means that he's seen every sort of sick and disgusting behavior that a human can exhibit. He's taken this experience and (hopefully) fictionalized the whole scenario. Wonderful. Go buy this immediately then read it twice in rapid succession.

"From the Publisher: "Good, mean fun...A twisting, high-speed ride on a roller coaster without brakes."
-- SAN FRANCISCO CHRONICLE Somebody wants Mick Stranahan dead, and the list of possible players is long: the plastic surgeon with the extremely shaky hands, the sleazy lawyer who advertises, the TV host whose taste for sensationalism is exceeded only by his vanity, and the hit man whose skin problems could fill a comprehensive (if bizarre) medical textbook. The whole thing is downright harrowing. It's Hiaasen at his best. And his best is very, very good. A Selection of the Literary Guild, the Doubleday Book Club and the Mystery Guild"
