Description

Introducing Travis McGee, a charismatic beach bum and self-described “salvage consultant” who lives aboard the Busted Flush, a houseboat won in a poker game and moored off the Florida coast. When a desperate client asks him to recover what has been stolen from her, McGee is drawn into a dangerous pursuit involving betrayal, obsession, and violence. Set against the vivid landscapes and shadowy undercurrents of Florida, this hardboiled mystery blends action, moral complexity, and sharp social observation. It marks the compelling beginning of one of crime fiction’s most distinctive series and establishes McGee as a resourceful, unconventional hero.
