Wrecker
$4.99
Carl Hiassen’s Florida is its own wild and unhinged setting that keeps coming back for more. In Wrecker, Hiassen is back at it with a hilarious romp through the Sunshine State as a young descendant of a shipwreck salvager finds himself living up to his family’s destiny.
**#1 *NEW YORK TIMES* BESTSELLER • Wrecker needs to deal with smugglers, grave robbers, and pooping iguanas—just as soon as he finishes Zoom school. Welcome to another wild adventure in Carl Hiaasen’s Florida!** Valdez Jones VIII calls himself Wrecker because his great-great-great-great-great-grandfather salvaged shipwrecks for a living. So is it destiny, irony, or just bad luck when Wrecker comes across a speedboat that has run hard aground on a sand flat? The men in the boat don’t want Wrecker to call for help—in fact, they’ll pay him to forget he ever saw them. Wrecker would be happy to forget, but he keeps seeing these men all over Key West—at the marina, in the cemetery, even right outside his own door. And now they want more than his silence—they want a lookout. He’ll have to dive deep into their shady dealings to figure out a way to escape *this* tangled net. . . .

I hope every middle grade reader has discovered this author and his entertaining stories set in Florida. No exception, this one centers on Valdez Jones VIII or Wrecker as he calls himself – a name going back to his ancestors diving wrecks. He’s more at home on the water in Key West than anywhere else so it wasn’t unexpected when he comes upon speedboat that’s run aground. But he didn’t expect to be hired by the sketchy guy on the boat to keep watch over a funeral plot in the local graveyard. A page turner for sure.
