Skin Tight by Carl Hiaasen

4.0

This was my first book from the author and I really enjoyed it! My twin let me borrow/recommended Skinny Dip which is the second book in the series so, of course, I had to get ahold of the first one first!
Mick Stranahan is a former Florida state investigator, beating up a judge, even if he was crooked, did not lead him to be a popular man. There is very little shock when a man shows up to try to kill Mick, he just wants to know the reason why, and fix the bill on his stuffed Marlin head. As he starts investigating the hit man his growing list of enemies continues to rise as well as the body count of people associated with him.
Mick’s character is a little overboard eccentric but the other characters love him and you can’t help but love him too. This story is packed full of bumbling villains and heroes, reality TV stars, crooked politicians and hack job plastic surgeons. I can’t wait for book two!
