Synopsis
Grange, Florida, is famous for its miracles--the weeping fiberglass Madonna, the Road-Stain Jesus, the stigmata man. And now it has JoLayne Lucks, unlikely winner of the state lottery. Unfortunately, JoLayne's winning ticket isn't the only one. The other belongs to Bodean Gazzer and his raunchy sidekick, Chub, who believe they're entitled to the whole $28 million jackpot. And they need it quickly, to start their own underground militia before NATO troops invade America. But JoLayne Lucks has her own plans for the Lotto money--an Eden-like forest in Grange must be saved from strip-malling. When Bode and Chub brutally assault her and steal her ticket, JoLayne vows to track them down, take it back--and get revenge. The only one who can help is Tom Krome, a big-city investigative journalist now bitterly consigned to writing frothy features for a midsized central Florida newspaper. With a persuasive nudge from JoLayne, Krome is about to become part of a story that's bigger and more bizarre than anything he's ever covered. Chasing two heavily armed psychopaths down the coast of Florida is reckless enough, but Tom's got other problems--the murderous attention of a jealous judge; an actress wife who turns fugitive to avoid divorce court; an editor who speaks in tongues; and Tom's own growing fondness for the future millionairess with whom he's risking his neck. The pursuit takes them from the surreal streets of Grange to a buzzard-infested island deep in Florida Bay, where they finally catch up with the fledgling militia--Chub, Bode Gazzer, a newly recruited convenience-store clerk and their baffled hostage, a Hooters waitress. The climax explodes with the hilarious mayhem that is Carl Hiaasen's hallmark. Lucky You is his funniest, most deliriously gripping novel yet.

    Seller is very responsive to questions and she answered them in a very timely manner. Good, discounted price on a 42 year old book which is in very good condition! Since seller lives in the area, I asked if I could pick up the book instead of paying shipping fee and she agreed to meet near her home. We corresponded and later met at a local restaurant, which was about 35 minutes from me and a few minutes for her. Finished the transaction inside the restaurant and we went on our way! Thank you!

    Carl Hiaasen articulates the voice of Everyman and Woman with his prescient novels. Nice to add a signed novel yo my library.

  • Hiassen's a Classic

    All Carl Hiassen novels are enjoyable, even though there is a similar thread running through each. I have read nine and am buying more as I am hooked on his writing technique.
