Synopsis Jimmy Buffett presents a novel about the eponymous Joe Merchant--a rock star at the height of his fame--who is missing and presumed dead, except by his sister. Accompanied by her former boyfriend--a seaplane pilot--and a pushy journalist in search of a story, she goes island-hopping in the tropics in search of Joe, encountering not only the natural beauty of the areas they visit, but pirates and other unsavory characters. Buffett writes in the relaxed, slightly rambling style his fans may recognize from the earlier TALES FROM MARGARITAVILLE.
