Another instant classic from Carl Hiaasenlaughoutloud funny, tackling the current chaotic and polarized American culture (following in the path of Squeeze Me), with two wonderful Hiaasen heroesThe afternoon of September first, dishwatergray and rainy, a man named Dale Figgo picked up a hitchhiker on Gus Grissom Boulevard in Tangelo Falls, Florida. The hitchhiker, who reminded Figgo of Danny DeVito, asked for a lift to the interstate. Figgo said hed take him there after finishing an errand.Thus begins Fever Beach, with an errand that leadsin pure Hiaasenstyleinto the depths of Florida at its most Floridian: a sunsoaked bastion of rightwing extremism, white power, greed, and corruption. Figgo, it turns out, is the only hatemonger ever to be kicked out of the Proud Boys for being too dumb and incompetent. On January 6, 2021 he thought he was defacing a statue of Ulysses S. Grant, but he wound up spreading feces all over a statue of James Zacharia George, a Civil War Confederate war leader.Figgos already messy life is about to get more complicated, thanks to two formidable adversaries. Viva Morales is a newly transplanted Floridian, a clever woman recently taken to the cleaners by her exhusband, now working at the Mink Foundation, a supposedly philanthropic organization, and renting a room in Figgos apartment because theres no place else she can afford. Twilly Spree has an anger management problem, especially when it comes to those who deface the environment, and way too many inherited millions of dollars. Hes living alone a year after his dog died, two years after he sank a city councilmans party barge, and three years after his divorce.Viva and Twilly are plunged into a mysteryinvolving dark money and darker motivesthey are determined to solve, and become entangled in a world populated by some of Hiaasens most outrageous characters: Claude and Electra Minkbillionaire philanthropists with way too much plastic surgery and a secret rightwing agendaand Congressman Clure Boyettewho dreams of being Floridas (and maybe Americas) most important politician. The only things standing in his way are his love for hookers and young girls, and his total lack of intelligence. We meet Noel Kristiansona Scandinavian agnostic injured when Figgo thinks hes a Jewish threat to humanity and runs him over with his car; Jonus OnusFiggos partner in white power idiocy; and many, many more. Hiaasen ties them all together and delivers them to their appropriate fates, in his wildest and most entertaining novel to date.
