Bad Monkey hardly needs yet another review, but it’s worth saying that it’s pretty classic Hiaasen. It is amusing, well written, involving and has all the elements we have come to expect: a somewhat flawed but likeable protagonist, scumbags defrauding the vulnerable and defacing and destroying Florida’s natural beauty and wildlife, and an exciting plot in which they eventually get their come-uppance.
This one is perhaps just a little over-long but I still enjoyed it a lot. Ideal cheering and escapist reading for time like these.
