This is the second wacky entry in the Serge Storms series by Dorsey. A followup to Florida Road Kill with Serge still after the briefcase containing $5 million in missing drug money from Road Kill. This one again is full of violence and crazy characters who all converge on Tampa on the brink of a major hurricane. These include the owner of the titular Hammerhead Motel, Zargoza, who is using the motel as a front for a drug operation and other scams evidently prevalent in Florida; the Diaz Boys who provide the drugs and are involved in the scams of Zargoza; City and Country, a pair of young women who are on the run for being in the wrong place during the accidental death of an Alabama sorority girl; a would be detective who is looking for a man who thinks he only has weeks to live; and of course, Serge Storms, the serial killer suffering from mental conditions who is off of his meds! Overall, I liked this followup novel, but it was a little difficult sometimes to keep track of all of the characters who were randomly introduced and sometimes seemed to have no bearing on the story. Mild recommendation for this one.
