This must be one of Hiaasen's earlier books, having been published in the '80's. It has the usual brand of Hiaasen styled craziness: black comedy, some grisly bits, flawed heroes, environmental issues, greedy developers, crooks, cops, and some really bizarre situations which, after reading an interview with the author, are probably based on actual events, which makes them even more bizarre.
So, all the elements were in this book but it failed to really grab my attention....and the bit with the poodle was gratutious, I felt.
Anyways, if anything, at least Hiaasen's books have improved over the years.
