From the author of Razor Girl, suspense and hilarity combine with greed and political corruption in the tale of a Florida stripper, a congressman, a heart-of-gold bouncer, a political fixer, and a touch of blackmail.

Only in America could an innocent, if drunken, guest of honor at a strip club bachelor party become a mortal threat against Big Money and Big Government. Only in South Florida, land of roadside honky-tonks and sinister pleasure boatsnot to mention blackmail and murderwould a virtuous topless dancer join forces with a cool but clueless cop. And only in the fiction of Carl Hiaasen do readers experience riveting suspense, razor-sharp characters, and the most wicked humor imaginable. Strip Tease is a tale of savage appetites and sweet justice.
