McGuane has constructed a novel with the impetus of a thriller and the heartbroken humor that is his distinct contribution to American prose.\n\nTiring of the company of junkies and burn-outs, Thomas Skelton goes home to Key West to take up a more wholesome life. But things fester in America's utter South. And Skelton's plans to become a skiff guide in the shining blue subtropical waters place him on a collision course with Nichol Dance, who has risen to the crest of the profession by dint of infallible instincts and a reputation for homicide.\n\n\"Thomas McGuane makes the page, the paragraph, the sentence itself a record of continuous imaginative activity....
