Plus dragons, demons, ghouls, and more. They’re all in Florida, land of the weird, where even monsters come to retire. Enter Missy Mindle. She’s started over in midlife as a home health nurse for elderly monsters and as a witch with growing powers. She solves mysteries and fights evildoers with help from a cute reporter. But dangerous secrets from the parents she never knew keep bubbling up. SNOWBIRDS OF PREY Dead bodies, drained of blood, are piling up on the beach beside Squid Tower. Unfortunately, this condo community is full of retired vampires who won’t survive if the police find out about them. Is one of their own responsible for the bodies? Or is someone framing them? Missy must solve the mystery. INVASIVE SPECIES Missy nurses an injured baby dragon she found in the Everglades. And she has to protect it from a deranged python hunter, an evil god, and an almost-as-evil CEO. Meanwhile, one of her vampires has been abducted, and she has to rescue him before he’s staked. FATE IS A WITCH Missy has two mysteries to solve. First, who is making a series of dangerous magick attacks against her? And who is stealing corpses from funeral homes in Jellyfish Beach?

So if you want to be truly entertained, READ THIS BOOK." Amazon Review"Plenty of mysteries and slap stick humor with a backwoods redneck cousin thrown in the mix. I almost felt like I was reading a cross between Terry Pratchett and Piers Anthony."

Download or read book Fringe Florida written by Lynn Waddell and published by . This book was released on 2018-03-06 with total page 280 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "This picaresque slideshow definitely has its ear to the ground for the weird, wacky, and wonderful that is now our peninsula's chief cash crop. If you're looking for the outer orbits of America, come to Florida, and if you seek the Sunshine State's funky-drumbeat fringe, you can do no better than Lynn Waddell."--Tim Dorsey, New York Times best-selling author "Waddell takes readers to Florida's wild side, where strippers, swingers, bikers, exotic animals, and carnies enjoy sun-kissed lives in America's strangest state."--Trevor Aaronson, author of The Terror Factory: Inside the FBI's Manufactured War on Terrorism "Lynn Waddell's riveting you-are-there reporting lives at the intersection where Florida's wacky subcultures and seamy undersides meet up. When you read this book, make sure you're standing over carpet--that way you won't hurt your jaw from dropping it so many times."--Craig Pittman, author of The Scent of Scandal: Greed, Betrayal, and the World's Most Beautiful Orchid "A fast, fascinating read. Waddell delivers ten surprising subcultures you might not dare visit on your own."--Lyn Millner, Florida Gulf Coast University Florida has a titillating underbelly that few tourists ever see. Beyond the theme parks and the beaches lies a periphery most residents know about but--out of decorum or discomfort--prefer not to discuss. In Fringe Florida, Lynn Waddell explores the exotic, sensational, and sometimes illicit worlds of the oddest state in the nation. Waddell takes the reader on a colorful journey to meet the most unconventional of Floridians in unbelievable and spectacular places. At Fetish Con, she befriends furries and pony girls. She travels to Cassadaga, the oldest active Spiritualist community in the South, where trained mediums converse with the dead, and to the Holy Land Experience theme park in Orlando, where one can eat a hot dog while watching a reenactment of the Crucifixion. She interviews the founder of the Leather & Lace Motorcycle Club, a Daytona Beach-area grandmother who hosts the club's annual gathering, welcoming scores of lady bikers to camp out on the lawn of her subdivision home. At an Animal Amnesty Day outside Busch Gardens, Waddell meets exotic reptile owners who give up their beloved-but no-longer-manageable pets and others who vie to take home the cast-offs. If you've ever wanted to parade around on a pimped-out swamp buggy amidst a couple thousand beer-swigging mud boggers or fall asleep with a python hissing in your ear, been tempted to bring a Capuchin monkey in a stroller to a Little League game, or contemplated sitting on the beach waiting to be picked up by a UFO but couldn't quite bring yourself to such extremes, Fringe Florida is for you.

A gleefully dark and entertaining debut for fans of Kevin Wilson and Karen Russell, about one young woman’s sensational summer at a Floridian wildlife center for exotic monkeys Jamie is a Florida Woman. She grew up on the beach, thrives in humidity, has weathered more hurricanes than she can count, and now, after going viral for an outrageous crime she never meant to commit in the first place, she has the requisite headline to her name. But when the chance comes for her to escape viral infamy and imminent jail time by taking a community service placement at Atlas, a shelter for rescued monkeys, it seems like just the fresh start Jamie needs to finally get her life back on track — until it’s not. Something sinister stirs in the palmetto woods surrounding her cabin, and secrets lurk among the three beguiling women who run the shelter and affectionately take Jamie under their wing for the summer. She hears the distant screams of monkeys each night; the staff perform cryptic, lakeside sacrifices to honor Atlas; and the land, which has long been abandoned by citrus farmers and theme park developers alike, now proves to be dangerously, relentlessly untamed. As Jamie ventures deeper into the offbeat world and rituals of Atlas, her summer is soon set to inspire an even stranger Florida headline than she ever could’ve imagined.
