Sick Puppy & Basket Case by Carl Hiaasen Hardback 2 Book Bundle 1st Ed 1st Print

Sick Puppy by Carl Hiaasen, Hardback 1st Edition 1999 - When Palmer Stoat notices the black pickup truck following him on the highway, he fears his precious Range Rover is about to be carjacked. But Twilly Spree, the man tailing Stoat, has vengeance, not sport-utility vehicles, on his mind. Idealistic, independently wealthy & pathologically short-tempered, Twilly has dedicated himself to saving Florida's wilderness from runaway destruction. He favors unambiguous political statements -- such as torching Jet-Skis or blowing up banks -- that leave his human targets shaken but re-educated. After watching Stoat blithely dump a trail of fast-food litter out the window, Twilly decides to teach him a lesson. Thus, Stoat's prized Range Rover becomes home to a horde of hungry dung beetles. Which could have been the end to it had Twilly not discovered that Stoat is one of Florida's cockiest & most powerful political fixers, whose latest project is the "malling" of a pristine Gulf Coast island. Now the real Hiaasen-variety fun begins. "Carl Hiaasen once again produces a devilishly funny caper. InSick Puppy, he shows himself to be a comic writer at the peak of his powers." --Publisher's Weekly The novel tells the story of Ralph Sarchie, a man who has been institutionalized for the last twenty-two years after a mental breakdown.
