Welcome to No Egrets-Oak Island's favorite watering hole, where the drinks are cold, the regulars are eccentric, and the mysteries have more twists and turns than a small intestine. No Egrets is the highly anticipated second book in the humorous Oak Island series, which began with Ripped Tide, the winner of the McGrath House Indie Award for Humor. At No Egrets, a quaint bar on Oak Island, North Carolina, bar staple Bobby Portis completely vanishes from his designated barstool. Then, things go from weird to worse when two other pub regulars suddenly fall ill with a bizarre, fast-acting blood disease. Is it a terrible coincidence, or is something sinister brewing on the North Carolina coast? No Egrets is owned by Glenn-a surgeon lured away from the medical field by a swordfish and island life-and his wife Glenda. They quickly find it takes a village to unravel a mystery. To find Bobby and solve the medical puzzle, the couple must corral their chaotic band of bar misfits to investigate. The quirky characters include Matilda, an ancient barfly who travels the island on a dilapidated Vespa and has a different drink for each day of the week...a psychotic, card-carrying Communist goon named Otto...Richard Crabgrass, a never-say-die bit actor who auditions for every movie and television part in Wilmington...the pungent fish cleaner from the Southport docks, Pinhead Paul...Joshua Ism McCarthy, surfer dude rumored to turn into his ancestor, Senator Joe McCarthy if a communist sets foot on Oak Island...and Daniel O'Dwyer, pharmacist hero from Ripped Tide. Perfect for fans of Carl Hiaasen, Tim Dorsey and Christopher Moore. A dash of mystery, a little romance, a splash of cozy, and a whole lot of zany. Praise for the Oak Island series:
Carney's books remind me of Jimmy Buffett songs. They're filled with quirky characters, inane circumstances, and lots of good hearts. -Lisa Shiroff, author of Show Up Dead.
Lance Carney has a great, deliciously warped sense of humor! There is a lot of Hiaasen in him. -Don Rich, author of the Coastal Adventure series.
