Sick Puppy, by Carl Hiaasen

I finished reading Sick Puppy, by Carl Hiaasen. Like the other Hiaasen books I’ve read it was a very funny and well written book. I’m working my way back through his catalog.

Only a smartass like Hiaasen can weave together a story with a kilt-wearing ex-governor that lives in the woods, an environmentalist with anger management issues, a hit man that listens to 911 calls over classical music, and the most accurate portrayal of a black Labrador Retriever ever put on paper.

Once again he takes a jab at the politics and over-development of Florida, but the story is original, and what is even scarier, totally believable! I have two other of his books I picked up at my last trip to the used book store that I’m looking forward to reading next.
