Strip Tease

The classic thriller from the king of satirical crime fiction, international bestseller Carl Hiaasen.

Book Hero Magic formatted this description to make it easier to read. While it's new and still learning, it may not be perfect - your feedback is welcome! Description

From Florida's most entertainingly indignant social critic (New York Times Book Review) comes an inventive tale of savage appetites and sweet justice.

Only in America could an innocent, if drunken, guest of honour at a strip joint bachelor party become a mortal threat against Big Money and Big Government.

Only in south Florida, land of roadside honky-tonks and sinister pleasure boatsβ€”not to mention blackmail and murderβ€”would a virtuous topless dancer join forces with a cool but clueless cop.

And only in the fiction of Carl Hiaasen do readers experience riveting suspense and razor-sharp characters along with the most wicked humour imaginable.
