Strip Tease, by Carl Hiaasen

This story is best known as a bad Demi Moore movie, which is a pity. It’s not my favorite Hiaasen book but it’s well worth reading if you like this sort of thing, which is wonderfully described by a reviewer at Amazon (see link below): As in all Hiaasen’s tales, the climax is upbeat for the heroes while the villains reap their twisted, greatly-deserved kharma.

In a nutshell, a likeable and sympathetic stripper gets in over her head with some shady characters, and some faces familiar to Hiaasen fans help her set things right. Perhaps more than others, this book casts Florida politics in a very unflattering (but apparently accurate) light.
