About This Audiobook

When a wealthy Palm Beach socialite vanishes during an exclusive gala, her disappearance triggers a media firestorm that reaches the highest levels of government. The missing woman's political connections and the President's inflammatory response about immigrant threats set off a chain reaction of chaos among Florida's elite. Wildlife wrangler Angie Armstrong finds herself pulled into the mayhem when massive Burmese pythons begin terrorizing the exclusive island community, leading to discoveries that expose the absurd reality behind the sensational headlines.

Scott Brick delivers a masterful performance that captures Hiaasen's razor-sharp satire with perfect comedic timing and distinct character voices. His narration brings immediacy to the author's biting social commentary, allowing listeners to savor every sardonic observation about wealth, power, and political theater. Brick's measured pacing enhances both the laugh-out-loud moments and the underlying environmental themes, while his Florida drawl adds authenticity to this sun-soaked tale of corruption and ecological revenge. The audio format amplifies Hiaasen's trademark wit, making each absurd plot twist land with maximum impact.
