Naked Came the Florida Man by Tim Dorsey
4.0
Tim Dorsey has a very inventive imagination. Serge is an off the wall person who travels around Florida with his stoner buddy, Coleman, getting into all kinds of interesting adventures. Serge has his own brand of justice and when he finds a person doing something he disapproves of he then takes care of the person in some very creative ways. The person is usually a real dirt bag that deserves what he gets. Not sure how the author keeps coming up with all the different crazy ways he finds to dispense of the bad guys.
Serge and Coleman are touring around the state during and after a hurricane on the 'cemetery tour'. They are visiting a lot of historic and not so well known places where people have been buried. Serge always expounds on the history behind each site and person and I have learned a lot about Florida and it's history in the process. The story jumps back in time every few chapters to what happened during a previous hurricane and a nasty sugar baron. He then chronicles the life of a young girl who lives in a small town that discovers some of the sugar baron's lost gold. She wants to be on the football and the story tells of her determination and what she goes thru. There all is a side story of a crooked salvage operator who crosses paths with the main characters in his search for the elusive lost gold. All stories converge near the end with some interesting outcomes for all.
Very entertaining, love this series.
