The Quick Red Fox: A Travis McGee Novel

From a beloved master of crime fiction, The Quick Red Fox is one of many classic novels featuring Travis McGee, the hard-boiled detective who lives on a houseboat.
Â
Sheâ€™s the opposite of a damsel in distress: a famous movie star, very beautiful, very much in control of her life. Sheâ€™s just made one little mistake and now she needs Travis McGee to set it right. The money is good and Travisâ€™s funds are in need of replenishing. But thatâ€™s not the only reason he takes the case. There is the movie starâ€™s assistantâ€”efficient and reserved, with a sadness underneath that makes McGee feel heâ€™d brave any danger to help her.

â€œJohn D. MacDonald is a shining example for all us in the field. Talk about the best.â€â€”Mary Higgins Clark
Â
Sultry movie star Lysa Dean has gotten herself into a spot of blackmail, posing for naked photos while participating in a debauched party near Big Sur. If the pictures get out, Lysaâ€™s engagement to her rich, strait laced fiancÃ© doesnâ€™t stand a chance. Enter Travis McGee, whoâ€™s agreed to put a stop to the extortion, working alongside Lysaâ€™s assistant, Dana Holtzer.
Â
They begin by tracking down everyone associated with the lurid evening, and soon enough theyâ€™re led on a chase across the nation as murder after murder piles up. Further complicating matters, Travis and Danaâ€™s relationship soon turns steamy. And just when he thinks he knows exactly where things are headed, one big twist shakes McGeeâ€™s life to the very foundation.
