A1A – A Weird Quirky Florida Mystery (Book 2)

A hilarious Florida mystery adventure full of gators, corruption, and coastal chaos!

When ex-corporate burnout turned reluctant private investigator Danny "Gumbo" Malone ditched the cubicle for a creaky houseboat in Cedar Key, he hoped for peace, sunsets, and maybe a cold beer or two. What he got instead? Florida weirdness turned up to eleven.

In A1A, the second laugh-out-loud installment of this offbeat Florida mystery series, Gumbo teams up with fiery investigative reporter Eliza Mercer to untangle what starts as a simple stalking case—but quickly spirals into a wild web of environmental crimes, shady land deals, and a conspiracy called Operation Sandcastle that's turning Florida's protected coastline into a developer's dream (and a wildlife nightmare).

With the help of Ellie Hightower—a former forensic accountant who makes spreadsheets look sexy—and a crew of unforgettable oddballs including an emotional support alligator and the infamous gator king, Old Scarback, Gumbo must wade through the backwater swamps, retirement home gossip circles, and abandoned mini-golf courses to stop the scheme before they end up gator bait.

Get ready for:

Laugh-out-loud moments from Florida's weirdest PI mystery A fast-paced whodunit packed with absurd twists and eccentric suspects Swampy suspense, environmental hijinks, and satirical Sunshine State chaos Characters so quirky, they make Florida Man look normal

Perfect for fans of Carl Hiaasen, Tim Dorsey, and Janet Evanovich, A1A is a must-read Florida crime caper filled with humor, heart, and a whole lot of Florida strange.
