Last Pays for All: A Tricky Dick Key West Mystery (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9781720270591)

When the one person left he might still be able to trust goes missing, Tricky Dick knows that time is running short to find Scooter's killer - and save his own life in the process.It comes as no surprise to Tricky that the early morning phone call he gets the morning after the storm that ravaged Key West and pushed him to the brink is Rachel, and that's she's been kidnapped. What is the surprise is the game of cat and mouse her captor plays with Tricky in order to keep him guessing as he searches for her. A series of misleading clues, random happenstance and deadly traps keeps Tricky on his toes, if not completely out of danger.Sensing his own isolation, The Chief tries to help Tricky as best he can, but more than any alliance he has or favor that he can call on, it is finally through the one thing he hates most - coincidence - that the final clue Tricky needs is revealed to him. Commandeering a boat and its crew, Tricky sets out for the Dry Tortugas, finally having the confrontation with the person who has always been one step ahead of him all along, from the very beginning. Three years ago, audiences were gripped with Jack's first novel in the series, "Talk Murder To Me." Since then, the adventure has continued through four more installments - "Traitor Vic's Rum Punch," "Make Mine A Double," "Red Skies At Midnight" and "Knee Deep And Rising." Along the way, there has been an ever-widening circle of suspects and assassins, mystery and mayhem, all swirling around the question that started it all: Who killed Scooter?Critics have described the previous books as "suspenseful," "A roller coaster ride" with "twists and turns on every page," Compared to Elmore Leonard for his snappy dialog, these books also remind readers of John MacDonald's legendary Travis McGee. If you are a fan of murder mysteries set in the tropics that grab you by the seat of your pants and don't let go, this si the series for you!
