Story
=====

From Publishers Weekly
Scathing humor strips the pretense off its targets like a hurricane 
in bestseller Dorsey's rapid-fire ninth thriller. Last seen in The Big 
Bamboo (2006), serial killer Serge A. Storms, who seems like all of 
the Marx brothers rolled into one, rumbles across Florida in a stolen 
Hummer with his usually drunk or stoned friend, Coleman. Serge follows 
one hurricane after another, driving in the relatively safe eye of the 
storm, pointing out fascinating bits of Florida history and only killing 
those who truly deserve it. That would include the guy in the car next 
to you blasting his music as well as the person price-gouging hurricane 
victims. The murders are accomplished in appropriately bizarre, if not 
graphic, fashion. As Serge evades law enforcement and perennial nemesis 
Agent Mahoney, his latest road trip allows him to skewer everything 
from President Bush to fast food establishments, with particular emphasis 
given to the foibles of the media (newspapers) for which Dorsey once 
worked. 13-city author tour. 

From Booklist
Dorsey's ninth novel to feature irrepressible Florida serial killer 
Serge A. Storm offers another utterly over-the-top blend of slapstick, 
satire, and mayhem. After a raucous adventure in Hollywood, Storm and 
his dumbed-down, liquored-up sidekick Coleman return to their native 
state, wreaking havoc as they chase hurricanes and kill civilians up 
and down the coast. Alas, it seems another local loco has made up his 
twisted mind to vie for the distinction of Florida's "most wanted." 
Dorsey's cast of characters reads like a psychiatrist's dream. Among 
them: Agent Mahoney, an obsessive-compulsive criminal profiler traumatized 
by his journeys inside Storm's mind, and Jeff McSwirley, a crackerjack 
reporter who regularly vomits and sobs when interviewing survivors of 
crimes. While Dorsey delivers less-incisive satire than does his fellow-Floridi-
an Carl Hiaasen, he does have his moments, particularly when targeting 
the media. The title refers to Coleman's cocktail of choice, a noxious 
blend of Red Bull, Everclear, exotic fruit juices, and liqueurs. Clearly 
an acquired taste. And, like Dorsey's novels, perhaps too potent for 
some.
