1992: Chester 'Blinky' Dade - D.E.A. drug informant and estranged son of a Dixiecrat Florida State Senator shoots the son of Pedro Uchoa- the most powerful drug boss operating in south Florida. A five million dollar price is put on his head and he is sent out to 'The Party Barge', a floating safehouse in the Everglades to hide until Boss Haverforth , his agency handler, can decide how to play both ends against the middle, collect the five million, and hide the ransom money for engineering the kidnapping of the old Senator before the F.B.I. can discover who is behind the plot. Kidnappers, dirty D.E.A. agents, exotic animal smugglers, Fish and Wildlife Agents, vicious snake-dancing punk rockers, primitive Christian serpent-whisperers, and radical animal rights activists all converge into the path of Hurricane Andrew in this explosively funny Post-Gonzo Crime Pulp novel by J.D. Brayton. First in 'The Edsel Mook' series, The Clabber Grrrl's Retreat is the beginning saga of some of the most unforgettable characters in fiction.
