Skinny Dip by Carl Hiaasen (2004, Hardcover)

Joey Perrone is thrown off a cruise ship so her scheming two timing husband Chaz can gain.... what, well you wont know until near the end and the twist is that Joey survives, but instead of going to the police she decides to have a little fun, play with Chaz's mind and ultimately get even.
I read this on holiday 2007 and could not put it down, a fantastic plot that twists and turn all the way to the end and great characters you can sympathise with and dislike in equal amounts.
Great stuff !

This is my very favorite book by Carl Hiassen. I purchased it to read on a two week cruise and finished reading it in 2-3 days! It was so entertaining and funny - the plot had so many different elements to keep me engaged and wanting for more! I've since read it again and now I've purchased it, too, to be part of my personal book collection. Love, Love, Love this book!

Excellent writer. Bring you into the story very quickly and you race from page to page looking for the next clue or problem facing the Heros of the stories. Enough of the truth to feel that this story could really happpen. Very interesting characters.

Read the book in four days! Fantastic! I am still rolling in laughter. Hiaasen needs to keep 'em coming. Anyone in the mood for a "not so complicated" murder plot with some out of this world characters MUST pick up this book!

From the first page, this book is a grabber. The story line moves along and at times nothing fits together, but as the characters develope and the wild scenes are woven together, it makes for a hilarious book. From the perspective of a South Florida resident, the references to local places is fun, and the mood set about the "strangeness" of the people here is right on target. Enjoy this book.

Another hilarious view of Florida. Payback takes on new meaning when the "murdered" wife survives and decides to get back at her husband. Carl is a master of comedic situations that involve the goodies and the baddies and the fruitcakes. Absolutely totally entertaining reading.

We are reading for book club and this was a good way to get the book. The whole experience was great-everything fell into place. and i have the book...

The book was in like new condition.. I had been looking for the book at the local bookstore at the mall and it was too expensive.. Even with shipping I got a great deal.. Just finished it.. plan to get more books by this author on Ebay..
