Publisher's Summary
Russell Bricklin "Bric" Wahl and his girlfriend Karen Murphy are rich beyond their wildest dreams, but they have paid a price. After a faked drowning and new names, courtesy of the Witness Protection Program, they can travel all over the world and live the life of the rich and famous, but all they really want to do is go home. They know as long as they stay far from Key West they will be safe.
Or will they?
This third novel in the Bric Wahl series takes Bric and Karen on an amazing voyage, first by motor home across the US and then on a 61-foot sailing yacht, visiting ports in the Gulf of Mexico, Caribbean, and Pacific Ocean before they set sail for Key West. They feel safe traveling under their new identities and enjoy their surroundings, believing the people who want to harm them are far away.
Or are they?
Resigned to leaving Key West forever, they both wonder if all the wealth is worth the loss. After all, the only thing they really wanted was a slice of Key West Normal, and now they have to hide for the rest of their lives.
Or do they?
Bric and Karen hatch a plan that will let them sneak back to the Keys under disguise, but after they return, Bric discovers some disturbing activities in Key West. He takes action, knowing that it may very well end his relationship with the love of his life.

Wrecker becomes Vigilantee
What other book might you compare Key West Normal: The Whole Ball of Whacks to and why?
Wayne Stinnett's Jesse McDermott Fallen Series
Which scene was your favorite?
Hearing Karen had the Gold.
If you were to make a film of this book, what would the tag line be?
Wrecking ain't want it used to be.
Any additional comments?
Reader's Digest Version: Bric succeeds big at wrecking, but suffers his success. Tries his luck at White Slavery vigilantism. Makes a small dent, gets several killed. Oh Well. The sound effects were tolerable (the water splashing one drives me crazy).
