A Novel

Publisher's summary

Bottom-feeders beware: the Sunshine State's favorite psychotic killer and lovable Floridaphile, Serge Storms, has found a new calling, legal eagle, and he's going to make a killing as a crusading attorney - and star as a dashing lawyer on the big screen - in this madcap escapade from insanely funny New York Times best-selling author Tim Dorsey.

When it comes to swimming with the sharks, there is no bigger kahuna than Serge Storms. Bingeing on a marathon of legal movies set in Florida, Serge finds his vocation: the law. Never mind law school or that degree; Serge becomes a freelance fixer - wildcat paralegal and pilgrim to the hallowed places where legal classics of the big screen such as Body Heat, Cool Hand Luke, and Absence of Malice were filmed practically in his own backyard.

One of Serge's old flames, young lawyer Brook Campanella, is also a rising star thanks to her expertise in the field of foreclosure law. Ruthless at taking down the greedy banksters kicking people out of their homes, she lands a major class-action lawsuit and looks set to win big. The opposition is determined to shut her down, and they'll go to extreme lengths to do it.

Luckily for her, Serge likes nothing better than saving a damsel in distress, especially when it means kicking a bunch of shyster butt. The mayhem comes to a hilarious head at the Key West courthouse at the height of the island's raucous Fantasy Fest street carnival, and no one, including Serge, will ever be the same.

"When Polly's in Trouble"............

If you could sum up Shark Skin Suite in three words, what would they be?

Laugh Out Loud

What does Oliver Wyman bring to the story that you wouldn’t experience if you just read the book?

Oliver Wyman brings the characters to life, from voice inflection and tones of the characters to the fast pace of the narration. He is the voice of Serge.

If you were to make a film of this book, what would the tag line be?

Hang on

Any additional comments?

With a quote from Underdog, a couple of "Serge-isms", stops throughout Florida, a seasoned cast of characters, and a Colman plot twist, what is not to like. "Shark Skin Suit" rates in my top three from Tim Dorsey.

Another great sorryi from Tim Dorsey!

I'm not quite sure of Tim Dorsey is a genius, or a lunatic!

There is one thing I am sure of...

He is the most entertaining author I've come across in a very long time. :)

One of the best in the series

This book kept me chuckling the whole way through. If you like any of the other books in this series, you will love this one!

OMG!!! How sick am I?

I just cannot get enough if Serge's method of justice! You will never be a participant inSerge's idea of a reality TV episode if you are not a genuine, bonafide JERK! Stay nice or Serge will find you.

Awww

Serg in love is a beautiful thing. And he's got a girlfriend too. Excellent.

Another hit

just when you think he has to have played out these characters, Mr Dorsey hits another homerun! Has someone in Hollywood not seriously looked at these books and thought "This would make a good franchise if we get the right actors"? I am seriously read for the next book. Tim you rock! Mr Oliver, once again, you have shown your incredible skill as a narrator. You have become the voice of Serge and Coleman. No one can do it better than you.

Tim Dorseys best SERG story!

This story has everything!!! especially the nuttiness of Serg Storm and his stoned side kick Coleman. Easy, fun, hilarious listen.
