Book Description
In 'Kilimanjaro Snow', Finn Pilar the ne're do well former Navy EOD specialist and disgraced Key West cop, faces his most complex case. A sailboat adrift off Wisteria Island near Key West crashes into the stern of his business partner's live-aboard boat. A deceased girl is found on board wearing nothing but a strange tattoo on her chest. Alarm bells go off for Finn who has seen this tattoo before in Cuba. Thus begins a tale of deceit, murder, and intrigue stretching across the Florida Strait. Amazon Reviews of 'Square Grouper' "Having been a Carl Hiassen fan for these past several years, I was hesitant to pick another author in the genre. I was not disappointed. Characters were believable and likable, the plot unpredictable and the pacing right on. Very pleased. Will be picking up more by this author featuring the same protagonist." "Fantastic book, great plot, better than any Stuart Woods book I have read. I couldn't put it down. Makes me want to move to Key West. Now I am ready for the next book!" Amazon Reviews of 'Tequila Mockingbird' "I love the characters in the Finn Pilar mystery books. The setting is perfect and Haskell makes me feel like I am in Key West. I would recommend this series to everyone." "Being a Florida native I love Key West. It's been my go-to destination for decades. Lewis Haskell has depicted the true Key West with all its drama, debauchery, and spirit. This was a novel I was sorry to finish. I found it hard to put down!" 'Kilimanjaro Snow' again features Finn Pilar and his three-legged dog Crutch, in this his third award winning novel. A native of Canada who lived in Key West off and on for fifteen years, he now lives full time in his adopted island home. He can be found most mornings having coffee at the White Tarpon, riding his rusty beach cruiser around Old Town or sipping a martini at Martins for happy hour.

Pages : 182
Book Description
The ideal introduction to the genius of Ernest Hemingway, The Snows of Kilimanjaro and Other Stories contains ten of Hemingway's most acclaimed and popular works of short fiction. Selected from Winner Take Nothing, Men Without Women, and The Fifth Column and the First Forty-Nine Stories, this collection includes “The Killers,” the first of Hemingway's mature stories to be accepted by an American periodical; the autobiographical “Fathers and Sons,” which alludes, for the first time in Hemingway's career, to his father's suicide; “The Short Happy Life of Francis Macomber,” a “brilliant fusion of personal observation, hearsay and invention,” wrote Hemingway's biographer, Carlos Baker; and the title story itself, of which Hemingway said: “I put all the true stuff in,” with enough material, he boasted, to fill four novels. Beautiful in their simplicity, startling in their originality, and unsurpassed in their craftsmanship, the stories in this volume highlight one of America's master storytellers at the top of his form.
