The sequel to the remarkable Florida Roadkill -- an extraordinarily original novel from a new young American author -- a funny, stylish, irreverent and shocking thriller. Tim Dorsey's sparklingly original debut novel -- Florida Roadkill -- was a hyper, jump-cut, manic black comedy that took Florida Noir to new extremes. Fellow writers and critics were quick to acclaim the bright new talent that created a high-voltage crime tale suffused with blacker-than-black humour and an infectious fascination with Florida's strange beauty. In Florida Roadkill, the strangely lovable homicidal maniac Serge Storms drove a series of stolen cars around Florida in pursuit of five million dollars hidden in the boot of the wrong car, leaving behind him a bewildering trail of bodies. Now, Serge takes up the chase once more, tracking the car and its hidden money to a dilapidated motel in Tampa -- the Hammerhead Ranch Motel.
