Torpedo Juice cover

Serge Storms has decided it's high time he got married, so he's off in search of Ms Right…

The drinks are on local historian/spree killer Serge Storms, who's decided it's high time he got married. But for Serge, "getting hitched" doesn't necessarily mean "settling down" – not when South Florida is crawling with slimeballs, swindlers, unrepentant jerks, and annoying bystanders whose ranks need some serious thinning.

The drinks are on local historian/spree killer Serge Storms, who's decided it's high time he got married. So he's motoring down to the Florida Keys – the ultimate end of the line – in search of Ms Right . . . 

And finding his doped-up basket case bud Coleman along the way. But for Serge, "getting hitched" doesn't necessarily mean "settling down" – not when South Florida is crawling with slimeballs, swindlers, unrepentant jerks, and annoying bystanders whose ranks need some serious thinning.

In other words, welcome to Tim Dorsey's slice of America – where nobody gets out unscathed and untanned!

Praise for the Serge Storm Series

'Hilarious... Serge Storms is, hands down, one of the most original and just-plain-captivating characters in modern crime fiction' Booklist


'The characters in Tim Dorsey’s raucous novel would be shot on sight in any other state' New York Times Book Review


'A good writer with plenty to say … To Dorsey’s eye, the Florida [that] residents love is awash in racism, smut, dope, corruption, and casual murderous violence. You can tell he loves it still' Cleveland Plain Dealer


'In Serge Storms, the convivial, schizoid torturer with an encyclopaedic knowledge of Florida, Dorsey has created a truly lovable loon' Birmingham Post


'Twisted hilarity … a compelling page-turner … Tim Dorsey is one sick bunny' Belfast News Letter


'Entertaining … funny … irreverent and loving at the same time … [Dorsey] leaves the reader gasping for breath' Washington Post Book World


'Excellent … I almost exploded with laughter as I read Dorsey’s novel. It’s manic, hysterical, and puts Dorsey well up there with the cream of comic writers who seem to have made Florida the centre for satirizing America in the 21st century' Independent
