The Florida Five: Five Florida Crime Novels | Five Florida Writers

Welcome to the Dark Side of the Sunshine State . . . The Florida Five is a collection of five Smart, Suspenseful, Action-packed Thrillers—all set in Florida. 5 complete novels by 5 bestselling, highly acclaimed Florida mystery/thriller authors. Florida is a beautiful place where ugly things happen—both to its environment and inhabitants. Florida is a place where people come to die. It hangs beneath the continent like a dangling chad—more a state of mind than one drawn on maps. Florida’s geographical diversity is only matched by its diverse populace. And those who write about it—as this collection so convincingly demonstrates. This diversity lends itself to a rich, varied crime fiction tradition. From the pine-tree lined rural highways of North Florida through the tourist traps of Central Florida to the tropical, international environs of SOBE, Florida crime writers continually offer up stories of sun-faded noir, orange pulp served freshly squeezed. Here they are. The Florida Five: Christine Kling, Diane Capri, Michael Lister, Michael Haskins, and Mary Anna Evans. Enjoy!
