Good and Gone: A Gumbo Malone Mystery

n

Dive into Florida's most bizarre criminal underbelly where gators aren't the only ones with bite!

n

When former corporate executive turned reluctant private investigator Danny "Gumbo" Malone takes on what seems like a simple missing person case in Cedar Key, Florida, he has no idea he's about to be pulled into a whirlpool of environmental corruption, exotic animal smuggling, and deadly secrets.

n

After eccentric orchid collector Elias Devereux vanishes without a trace, Gumbo finds himself navigating a swampy labyrinth of suspicious pet spa owners, art thieves known as "The Pelican," emotional support geckos, and corrupt real estate developers. With his stilthouse boat damaged in a freak storm and danger lurking around every mangrove, Gumbo's Florida retirement isn't turning out quite as planned.

n

Joined by no-nonsense detective Linda Hastings and sharp-witted former forensic accountant Eleanor "Ellie" Hightower (whose hurricane-strength coffee might be the most dangerous thing in the Sunshine State), Gumbo must untangle a web of lies before he becomes the next person to mysteriously disappear in the Everglades.

n

Good and Gone serves up a perfect cocktail of suspense and humor where:

n

- Ancient alligators might be your best allies

n

- Luxury pet spas hide criminal enterprises

n

- Environmental regulations are more suggestion than law

n

- And a "Florida Man" headline might just be your next clue

n

Perfect for fans of Carl Hiaasen, Tim Dorsey, and Dave Barry, this first installment in the Gumbo Malone Mystery series delivers a sun-soaked, wickedly funny thriller that proves Florida isn't just a state it's a state of mind. And sometimes, that mind is criminally insane.

Grab your sunscreen and sense of humor this is one Florida adventure you won't want to miss!
