Powder burn by Carl Hiaasen and Bill Montalbano
Book Number:RC 47591
2 sound cassettes
Series: Vintage crime/Black Lizard

Architect Chris Meadows is caught up in Miami’s cocaine wars when a former
girlfriend and her child are killed during a gang shootout. Meadows is also
wounded but survives to identify the triggerman. Although he works with the
police, Meadows also seeks his own form of justice. Strong language,
violence, and some descriptions of sex.
Working with another writer,Hiaasen is still edgy and gritty. This one
doesn't have the satire of his independent books but was still an excellent
read. I give it a 5 out of 5.
Happy reading,
Carla/TexasRed
