Book Description:
Smart, honest, tough, but very tender, John D. MacDonald's famous fictional hero Travis McGee is a fearless adventurer, an intrepid investigator, a champion of underdogs, a rescuer of ladies in distress, and a contemporary philosopher extraordinaire.

Keeping himself alive is something McGee has always taken for granted - until his search for a wealthy friends missing yacht places him square in the center of the international cocaine trade. As he follows a scorching white line from Miami's penthouse suites to a tine village in Mexico's Yucatan Peninsula, Travis finds himself the target of some of the most ruthless villains he's ever met.

Pressed into contemplating for the first time his own mortality and jolted into taking stock of his life, Travis McGee discovers amid all the danger the astonishing surprise the cat-shaped pipe cleaners someone is leaving at his door. This is vintage McGee in a novel that confirms John D. MacDonald's reputation as one of the greatest storytellers of all time.


"Travis McGee is back in action and he is in fine, fine form....What a treat. It is John D. MacDonald's 21st Travis McGee book and, without reservation, his best." THE SAN DIEGO TRIBUNE

The final book in the Travis McGee series by John D. MacDonald, and one of the best. McGee has finally started to mature, and there's a real shocker that I won't spoil for you. A great read!
