Take a slasher-movie actress, a Scottish circus clown, an FBI school dropout, a blind heiress, a junk-food-loving millionaire developer, and a Buddha-quoting bluesman, add a couple of murders in a normally sedate retirement community in south Florida, and you get an irresistible tale that's part Carl Hiaasen and part Gabriel Garcia Marquez. It all goes down as easy as a Key lime pie martini, the signature drink of the Bad Girl's Bar & Grill. N. M. Kelby's last three novels have received glowing reviews in the New York Times, Entertainment Weekly, People, and the Atlantic Monthly. Carl Hiaasen has called her "a natural-born writer," and Kirkus praised her "black humor that sizzles." Sit back, put up your feet, and get ready to lose yourself in a rollicking good story.
