Bestselling author and columnist Carl Hiaasen returns with another hysterical mystery for kids set in Florida's Everglades. Bunny Starch, the most feared biology teacher ever, is missing. She disappeared after a school field trip to Black Vine Swamp. And, to be honest, the kids in her class are relieved. But when the principal tries to tell the students that Mrs. Starch has been called away on a "family emergency," Nick and Marta just don't buy it. No, they figure the class delinquent, Smoke, has something to do with her disappearance. And he does! But not in the way they think.

With its dozens of outlying islands and the native Conchs’ historically low regard for the law, Key West is a smuggler’s paradise. All that’s needed are the captains to run the contraband. Breeze Albury is one of the best fishing captains on the Rock, and he’s in no mood to become the Machine’s delivery boy. So the Machine sets out to persuade him. It starts out by taking away Albury’s livelihood. Then it robs him of his freedom. But when the Machine threatens Albury’s son, the washed-out wharf rat turns into a raging, sea-going vigilante.

Joey ha una missione: vendicarsi di Chaz, il marito che l'ha uccisa. 0 meglio, che ci ha provato, scaraventandola tra gli squali nel mezzo dell'oceano. La Corrente del Golfo l'ha portata, aggrappata a trenta chili di marjuana abbandonati dai contrabbandieri, nelle acque blu di un isolotto dell'Atlantico. Lì vive Mick Stranahan, ex sbirro, un duro dal cuore d'oro, sopravvissuto a sei mogli. Insieme a Mick, Joey orchestra un imprevedibile piano per portare il marito alla follia e Chaz, che non riesce più a controllare i nervi e la sua impetuosa amante, chiede aiuto a Red, il boss per cui lavora, che gli affianca un tirapiedi pronto a sparare per uccidere. La comicità di Hiaasen dà il suo meglio quando i nervi di Chaz cominciano ad andare in pezzi e il suo "delitto perfetto" si sgretola in una serie di fatali errori.

Carl Hiaasen - Key Largo
Italian | Mondadori | EPUB | Pages: N/A | ISBN: 880436212X | 1992 | 3 Mb

"Key Largo" è il romanzo duro, appassionate, senza scrupoli che ha confermato che il suo autore Carl Hiaasen come l'esponente di punta di quella frangia di scrittori che si pongono il divertimento altrui come primo e assoluto obiettivo.
Joe Winder, ex giornalista d'assalto, è impiegato presso l'Ufficio di Pubbliche Relazioni della Amazing Kingdom of Thrills, un parco di divertimenti di Key Largo, Florida, il cui proprietario, Francis X. Kingsbury, accarezza il sogno malato di battere Disney sul suo stesso terreno. Però, a Key Largo, tutto sembra molto noioso e banale. Finché il furto di due rare arvicole fa improvvisamente precipitare gli eventi. Il furto, organizzato da una ricca vedova ambientalista, si rivela una catastrofe, perché i due animaletti muoiono. E' il primo anello di una catena di eventi che travolgono Winder, gli altri strambi personaggi e anche il lettore.
