Summary

A lovely young girl steps in front of Travis McGee's headlights. McGee misses the girl but lands in 10 feet of swamp water. As he's limping along the deserted road, someone in an old truck takes a few shots at him. And, when he goes to the local sheriff to complain, the intrepid Travis McGee finds himself arrested and charged with murder. And he can't help but ask himself, "is this what they call southern hospitality?"

Profile Image for Mr. C. G. Moore

A satisfying, solid entry into the series. Top 5

A satisfying story with all the fat trimmed. Never boring, the plot bounces along. After 12 novels it would be easy to see this as the same old nonsense but if you like McGee novels then this is a great example of how it should be done.
Full of tense and seedy prose, MacDonald has come out with a well plotted (by pulp standards) detective noir
