Andrew Yancy has lost his appetite for resturant food, and would really like to be rescued from his job on "Roach Patrol." Being a Health Inspector is not a lush gig, which explains why Yancy has a human arm in his freezer.
Sort of.
Yancy thinks that if he can prove this "boating accident" was really a murder, then he would be forgiven a random act of violence and reinstated to the Monroe County sheriffs office.
Unfortunately for Andrew Yancy things, as usual for a Hiaasen novel, begin to go amusingly wrong for him.
This story takes you from Miami to the Bahamas and includes a cast of characters including a voodoo witch, a kinky coroner and, yes, even a Bad Monkey that is the novels namesake.
My favorite part of this novel was actually the sub-plot. A real-estate agent has optimistically built an eyesore of a building beside Yancy's home. Driving off the deer that used to feed there and blocking his sunset.
And for some reason that agent is having the devils own time finding a buyer for that home. It seems to be cursed with bad luck.
