Carl Hiaasen
Carl Hiaasen http://www.carlhiaasen.com/ is a novelist and columnist for The Miami Herald. His novels are populated by charaters who are hard to describe. But the casts work well. A Hiaasen novel is hard to put down.
Hiaasen seems to appreciate the irony of a captive exotic animal killing the bad guys. In Stormy Weather, an African lion eats a mobster (as the mobster is preparing to crucify his second victim...you have to read the story). And at the end of Sick Puppy, I'm not going to tell, because it's too good. So read it.
Hiaasen has a serious message to convey: the miserable mess that humankind has made of Florida. But you could name just about any state or place.
Take comfort. Nature wins.
I'm working on Strip Tease now.
