Grift Coast: An Ellis Kane Mystery
O ovoj e-knjizi
The beaches are beautiful. The locals are eccentric. And someone is trying to bulldoze a century-old family farm.
Former Houston detective Ellis Kane expected his new life as a Florida private investigator to be quieter than homicide. Instead, he's hired by the Creely family after bulldozers arrive with court orders to demolish the home they've owned for generations. The paperwork appears legitimate.
The problem?
None of it's real.
As Kane digs deeper, forged documents lead to powerful developers, crooked officials, and a conspiracy worth millions. Before long, witnesses start turning up dead, someone wants Kane out of the picture, and proving the truth may cost him far more than his investigator's fee.
Fortunately, Kane has a few advantages: a sharp eye for scams, a stubborn streak a mile wide, loyal friends, and a town so delightfully bizarre that sometimes the weirdest thing in Florida... is the only honest clue.
Packed with laugh-out-loud humor, unforgettable characters, surprising twists, and edge-of-your-seat suspense, Grift Coast is the second Ellis Kane Mystery—a Florida whodunit where sunshine, corruption, and absurdity collide — perfect for fans of Carl Hiaasen, Dave Barry, and Janet Evanovich.

O autoru
David Antocci is a novelist, performer, and longtime storyteller from New England. Before turning his focus to fiction, he spent years writing humor and lifestyle pieces for the Worcester Telegram & Gazette website, sharing the adventures and chaos of family life through the lens of a real-life Mr. Mom.
A lifelong lover of stories in all forms, David has worn many creative hats over the years: author, actor, musician, and entertainer. While music was his first passion, he eventually traded late-night guitar sessions for late-night writing sessions, discovering that the sound of keyboard keys is far more family-friendly after the kids have gone to bed.
David is the author of multiple novels spanning suspense, thrillers, and his brand new Ellis Kane mystery series, blending humor, mystery, and colorful characters in a tropical Florida setting. When he isn't writing, he can often be found on stage performing, spending time with his family, or buried in spreadsheets at his day job, wondering how he somehow ended up becoming the "numbers guy."
He lives in New England with his wife and children
