The Amazing Kingdom of Thrills, a Florida theme park built by a former racketeer, becomes the center of a chaotic investigation when two rare, blue-tongued mango voles vanish. Joe Winder, a disillusioned ex-reporter now handling public relations for the park, finds his dulled instincts reawakened as he is drawn into the bizarre theft. His search for the endangered rodents quickly unravels a larger scheme involving environmental exploitation, pervasive corruption, and a host of eccentric characters, including a determined environmentalist group and a peculiar former governor. This darkly humorous crime novel plunges readers into a satirical look at Florida's underbelly, where mayhem and morality collide.
