About this audiobook

Take three speedboats, a disgruntled ghostwriter, and a hit TV show starring a gorgeous but impossible diva and created by a driven genius who may be losing his marbles. Add a fearless and gleefully profane stuntwoman, an ancient Mafioso with a chihuahua, and a revenge-crazed blonde in gladiator sandals. Stir in a thug with a heart of gold and an inveterate slacker who yearns for glory. Whisk a loopy but tender romance into the mix, turn the whole crew loose in the liberating and seductive sunshine of the Florida Keys-and what do you have? SHOT ON LOCATION, the new and long-awaited Key West novel by Laurence Shames. Hilarious and suspenseful, wisecracking and wise, this is the most intoxicating story yet from the author of such cult classics as FLORIDA STRAITS and SUNBURN. Longtime Shames fans will rejoice at his return to the fictional turf of Key West and the reappearance of some of his most beloved characters. And new readers will find themselves in for a hell of a ride as Hollywood glitz meets Florida funky.

    A lighthearted addition to Shames’ series of novels centered on Key West. A ghostwriter hired to write a book based on a hit show arrives on the island and stumbles into a mystery involving a diva actress whose life is apparently threatened.

    I've read a few of Shames books in the past and this book pretty much covers the same territory - a light mystery set in Key West with a few kooky characters, some normal characters, and a coherent plot that is very well written. While there's nothing special here, it still an enjoyable read and I would recommend it to anyone who likes these comic Florida mysteries. A personal note to myself: this was the first e book that I've read.

    Laurence Shames is back with his Key West Series, and thank god he is. This is as good as any of the others in the series and a fantastic way. To start a very cold 2014. I think it is time to re-read the series.

    Finally. I have waited and hoped for years for this book. Laurence Shames wrote some of the funniest books i've ever read. He wrote them consistently and they were all great. Then he stopped. Finally he's back.I thoroughly enjoyed this book. It was funny, it was set in Key West, it brought back characters from previous books. What more could I have asked for? This book is a funny mystery with a lot of heart. It tells the story of a ghost writer hired to pen a tie in novel to a hit tv show that films in Key West. He gets involved in a tale of attempted murder that involves the mob, hollywood hotshots and Key West locals. The fun never stops. The characters are all great, even the bad guys, but the setting also plays a key role. I highly recommend this book.
