Bottom feeders beware: the Sunshine State's favorite psychotic killer
and lovable Floridaphile Serge Storms has found a new calling, legal
eagle, and he's going to make a killing as a crusading attorney--and
star as a dashing lawyer on the big screen--in this madcap escapade from
the insanely funny New York Times bestselling author Tim Dorsey.
When it comes to swimming with the sharks, there is no bigger kahuna
than Serge Storms. Binging on a marathon of legal movies set in Florida,
Serge finds his calling: the law. Never mind law school or that degree,
Serge becomes a freelance fixer--wildcat paralegal and pilgrim to the
hallowed places where legal classics of the big screen such as Body
Heat, Cool Hand Luke, and Absence of Malice were filmed practically
in his own backyard.
One of Serge's old flames, young lawyer Brook Campanella, is also a
rising star thanks to her expertise in the field of foreclosure law.
Ruthless at taking down the greedy banksters kicking people out of their
homes, she lands a major class-action lawsuit, and wins big. The
opposition is determined to shut her down and they'll go to extreme
lengths to do it.
Luckily for her, Serge has been hired to do some investigative legwork
on the case. There's nothing he likes better than saving a damsel in
distress, especially when it means kicking a bunch of shyster butt. The
mayhem comes to a hilarious head at the Key West courthouse, at the
height of the island's raucous Fantasy Fest street carnival, and no one,
including Serge, will ever be the same.
