Description: In the Florida Keys, a houseboat explodes in a giant white flash, instantly killing those on board. The boat belonged to Travis McGee's friend Meyer. But it's not Meyer who's dead - he'd lent it to his just-married niece, Norma, and her husband, hoping to give them the perfect honeymoon.
Synopsis: 'MacDonald had a huge influence on me . . . Reacher is like a fully detached version of Travis McGee' LEE CHILD Travis McGee isn't your typical knight in shining armour. He only works when his cash runs out, and his rule is simple: He'll help you find whatever was taken from you, as long as he can keep half. In the Florida Keys, a houseboat explodes in a giant white flash, instantly killing those on board. The boat belonged to Travis McGee's friend Meyer. But it's not Meyer who's dead - he'd lent it to his just-married niece, Norma, and her husband, hoping to give them the perfect honeymoon. When a group of Colombian terrorists take responsibility for the brutal act, Meyer and McGee travel to Mexico to seek justice. And Meyer, normally content in McGee's shadow, is determined to avenge the one family member he had left . . . or die trying. First published in 1982, Cinnamon Skin features an introduction by Lee ChildJOHN D. MACDONALD: A GRAND MASTER CRIME WRITER'The great entertainer of our age, and a mesmerizing storyteller' - Stephen King'Travis McGee is my favourite fiction detective.

I envy the generation of readers just discovering Travis McGee' - Sue Grafton'The consummate pro, a master storyteller and witty observer . . . The Travis McGee novels are among the finest works of fiction ever penned by an American author and they retain a remarkable sense of freshness' - Jonathan Kellerman'. . . my favorite novelist of all time' - Dean Koontz'A master storyteller, a masterful suspense writer . . . John D. MacDonald is a shining example for all of us in the field' - Mary Higgins Clark'What a joy that these timeless and treasured novels are available again' - Ed McBain'There's only one thing as good as reading a John D. MacDonald novel: reading it again . . . He is the all-time master of the American mystery novel' - John Saul
