Serge A. Storms is back on the road in the latest zany Florida caper from the “wickedly funny” (Entertainment Weekly) Tim Dorsey. After a long and arduous COVID-19 quarantine, Serge A.

Along with his condo neighbors, he cooks up a wild plan to celebrate in true Serge fashion: each week, they rent a shuttle van and head out for funky Florida road trips and some serious revelry. Meanwhile, a CIA revenge operation down in Honduras goes very, very wrong. The local liaison hired to help with the mission is the only witness to the disaster, and the CIA quickly sets a black ops contractor on his trail to eliminate him. Forced to flee his home country, the witness lands in Miami with a new identity and passport. But the CIA is still on his tail, pushing him further and further south to the Florida Keys, where he runs into Serge’s convoy. With Florida’s most lovable serial killer involved, the real party is about to get started…

Pope of Palm Beach, The
No one worships the Sunshine State as much as Serge. He and his permanently baked sidekick, Coleman, are on the road again. This time they’re on a frenzied literary pilgrimage that leads them back to Riviera Beach, the cozy seaside town where the boys spent their formative years. Growing up, Serge was enthralled by the legend of Riviera Beach, aka Darby Pope, a welder at the port who surfed the local waves long before the hot spots were hot. A god on the water, the bighearted surfer was a friend to everyone and had a generosity of spirit that earned him the admiration of all. Meanwhile, a much murkier legend made the rounds of the schoolyards of Serge’s youth—that of the crazy hermit living in a makeshift jungle compound farther up the mysterious Loxahatchee River than anyone dared to venture. Then Serge moved away. But he never forgot. Now he’s back in town, with those legends looming larger than ever in the rearview mirror of his memory. As Serge digs into the past, he unintentionally disturbs some long-forgotten ground, attracting the attention of a cast of villains that only Florida could produce. And as the body count grows, so does the list of questions. When do you hack a motel air conditioner? How does Coleman get high with cat toys? And will book tours ever be the same after Serge decides to check one out?
