The Ethical Assassin: A Novel Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)Many people have commented on how this could be something that Carl Hiaasen could've penned, and I couldn't agree more. Set in Florida in the mid eighties the book begins with a seventeen year old encylopedia salesman named Lem Altick who, while pitching his product to a couple, witnesses their brutal slaying. Their assassin turns out to be a charming, intelligent guy whose agenda, or more appropriately 'mission', reveals itself later in the book in a didactic (to the point of bashing you over the head) way. However, before this, the book is ripe with a madcap plot and cast of off the wall characters that flavor Hiassen novels including, an oversexed redneck sheriff, and the surviving half of Siamese twins. The book is genuinely funny, and even though the shady dealings that are going on are not that unique, his characters are.
