A mistaken target sets off a Key West search

Merry Mansfield’s work for the mob depends on turning car crashes into abductions, but a wrong turn in her latest job connects her to Lane Coolman, a talent manager whose reality-TV client has disappeared. Buck Nance’s flight follows a disastrous standup appearance at a Key West bar, where his jokes spark a brawl. The setup brings together a kidnapping scheme, a missing television personality, and the world of Cajun rooster-farming reality TV, with the action rooted in the Florida Keys. The mystery grows from the collision of these mismatched complications.

Book overview

NATIONAL BESTSELLER - A lovable con woman and a disgraced detective team up to find a redneck reality TV star in this raucous new novel from the New York Times bestselling author of Squeeze Me.

"Carl Hiaasen's irresistible Razor Girl meets his usual sky-high standards for elegance, craziness and mike-drop humor." --The New York Times

Merry Mansfield, the eponymous Razor Girl, specializes in kidnapping for the mob. Her preferred method is rear-ending her targets and asking them for a ride. Her latest mark is Martin Trebeaux, owner of a private beach renourishment company who has delivered substandard sand to a mob hotel. But there's just one problem: Razor Girl hits the wrong guy. Instead, she ends up with Lane Coolman, talent manager for Buck Nance, the star of a reality TV show about a family of Cajun rooster farmers. Buck Nance, left to perform standup at a Key West bar without his handler, makes enough off-color jokes to incite a brawl, then flees for his life and vanishes.
