Native Tongue': PR Man Joe Wilder didn't believe the theft of the last two blue-tongued voles on Earth from a billionaire's Florida theme park. He just wrote the story. Asking questions later was his biggest mistake. Before he could say Robbie Raccoon, he was hiding out in the Everglades with a one-eyed man and a gun-toting granny in pink curlers - and ready to put the skids on the craziest crime con in the history of the state...... 'Striptease': Welcome to the Eager Beaver....not just a topless fun palace in the heart of southern Florida's deadliest human swamp, but the mega-sleazy backdrop to the juiciest scandal in Miami's entire colourful history. It's enough to say it begins with the sex-addled political fixer 'Molly Moldwoski', Erin the beautiful stripper and a champagne bottle...and ends in a riotous cocktail of blackmail, comedy and cover-ups starring grotesques great and small.

Stormy Weather': Madison Avenue adman Max Lamb is a disappointed man. A prime-time hurricane debastates southern Florida at the start of his honeymoon......and he can't even use his camcorder. Fortunate, really, as the results would not make family viewing back home in New York. Within hours the ruins are alive with Mobsters, crusaders, temptreses, presidential aides and escaped wil animals. Even a crucifixion, previously unheard of in these parts, can't halt the mayhem. For the inhabitants of Dade County, the hurricane is the second gold rush - the year's hottest scam. Everyone wants a piece. And Max, he just wants to go home...... 'Lucky You': Saturday afternoon in Grange, Florida. Virtually unnoticed, JoLayne Lucks stops by the Grab'n'Go tp play the same numbers she's played every week for five years. 17-19-22-24-27-30. Each lotto number marking the age she dumped a tiresome lover. She doesn't know it yet, but the discarded men in JoLayne's life have finally amounted to something. $28 million and a whole swamp of trouble........
