Double Whammy
Double Whammy | Carl Hiaasen
10 posts | 13 read | 14 to read
Dennis Gault, tycoon and fishing fanatic, was only the first of private eye R.J. Decker's problems. Hired by Gault to investigate cheating on the Florida bass-fishing circuit, Decker found himself surrounded by murder, obsession and a plethora of characters from beyond the fringe, to whom catching bass was more fun than sex. Pretty soon, Decker's own neck is on the line as he discovers that fishing in Florida doesn't involve just killing bass... 'A careful reading of Double Whammy will do more to damage the Florida tourist trade than anything except an actual visit to Florida' P.J. O'Rourke 'I went for Double Whammy hook, line and sinker, and I think you will too' Washington Post 'An outrageously entertaining high-protein experience' Observer

One of the very few #orange books in my collection. My aunt and I love reading Hiaasen, and swap books between ourselves all the time! 🧡🧡 #funnybooks #doublewhammy #readingresolutions @Jess7

Never thought a book about bass fishing tournaments could not only be hysterical but filled with murder, suspense and a naked Amazon called Skink, did ya?? I am a HUGE Hiaasen fan & this book never felt ripe until now. Jump in for debauchery, comedy and insanity!

ferskner His books surprised me so much! Totally not my thing, but I love them. 7y
IamIamIam @ferskner He's amazing!!! Easily one of my favorite authors and one of very few who can truly make me laugh out loud! ❤❤ 7y

When reading Carl Hiaasen, prepare for chaos, especially if Skink is involved!!!
"Fresh opossum - or we all die together!"
I swear, I love this guy!!!!! That goes for Hiaasen, Skink and Jim Tile, his recurring characters.

Stuck in traffic, listening to the #trollkins have fun watching old school Sesame Street episodes & traveling on the new #GoethalsBridge while the old one is being removed on the right! I'm too distracted by the 3rd world drivers to relax and read, though!!!
