*Starred Review* "On Florida's lower east coast, only one thing flourishes more luxuriantly than crime, and that is crime writing. With Bruns' second offering, we are presented with yet another set of lovable freaks and oddballs; this batch will remind the reader of Tim Dorsey's cast of whacked-out characters but with the narrative voice and feel of Mark Twain's Huck Finn."    —Booklist "We just love Floridian crime tales, and Stuff To Die For, by Don Bruns, is a perfect example of why. Witty, gritty and filled with brilliantly realized characters, the book a pure delight. Let's hope the rumors are true and Stuff To Die For heralds the start of new series."    —Award-winning author Jeffrey Deaver "A tornado of a tale!"    —Edgar Award winner Rupert Holmes "Stuff is an entertaining, twisty and humorous ride..."    —Journal Star (Lincoln, Nebraska) Read the full review... ,They may see themselves as aging reincarnations of the Hardy Boys, but James (,never Jim or Jimmy0/00) Lessor and Skip Moore are much closer in spirit to Tom Sawyer and Huck Finn.... The bizarre nature of South Florida doesn,t figure quite as prominently in Bruns, story here as it does in Carl Hiaasen,s wild imaginings, but it is still an essential element. James and Skip are no great shakes as detectives, entrepreneurs, or lovers, but they are so puppy-dog endearing and funny that they deserve an encore. Perhaps even a series. Like the Hardy Boys.0/00    —Edward Morris, Forword magazine ,On their first job as self-employed movers, twenty-something James Lessor and Skip Moore discover a bloody finger. Throw in the CIA, murderous thugs, Cubans with agendas, and Miami will never be the same—and neither will James and Skip. This quirky engaging mystery by the author of the Mick Sever series (South Beach Shakedown) is a buddy novel as funny as the movie Dumb and Dumber.0/00    —Library Journal "One of the best thriller writers today. Read his books for their fast pace and brilliant plots, reread his books to appreciate his writing style which is truly reminiscent of the legends of the genre..."    —Strand Magazine ,Stuff to Die For is the latest from Don Bruns, author of the popular and critically acclaimed (by me, among others) South Beach Shakedown. A worthy successor to that fine book, Stuff to Die For is a sure bet to appeal to fans of Carl Hiaasen, Tim Dorsey or James O. Born.0/00    —BookPage
