About this listen
Helena Pearson. Undeniably beautiful... indisputably rich... incredibly wanton... the perfect client for Travis McGee. He did a big favor for her husband and then for the lady herself. Now Helena is dead, and McGee finds out that she had one last request to make of him: find out why her beautiful daughter, Maurie, keeps trying to kill herself. So, half-convinced that Maurie needs a good doctor and not a devil-may-care beach bum, McGee makes his way to the prosperous town of Fort Courtney, Florida, a respectable, booming, deadly little place.

Brilliant
This was a gripping story and very well narrated. I am definitely going to read many more Travis McGee books!

A rare misfire
Book 10 so understandably this is now well trodden ground. But the plot is confusing and dare I say boring, the characters are interchangeable and it doesn't have the energy and zip it's predecessors have. The recipe is still all there (and if you've reached book 10 then you are very familiar with it) but all the proportions are wrong. Not enough sex, violence, detective work, McGee philosophy or well drawn characters. By the time it gets going it's a bit too little too late. Purely for the completists
