I truly enjoyed this book.
It is of course kind of old fashioned but wery nicely written. An Agent, ex - soldier, journalist, spy story.
Each and every one has their own motives and also their own vices to fight with.
Key West of the 70's reminds me of Amsterdam. Full of public secrets that are well known and well accepted by the police and the society. ( Drug use, infidelity, homosexuality, nymphomania )
I also greatly enjoyed all those bits and peces of information about history and geography of Key West.
There is only one problem....this book have way to many loose ends.
It looks almost like if the author wanted to write sequel where he will possibly re - use some of his current characters at least Ihope.
Anyway I will gladly read some of his other stories. They are quite entertaining.
