(2) YA Teen narrator Richard's cousin and best friend, Malley, runs away from home because she doesn't want to go to boarding school. When Richard tells Skink (who has starred in half a dozen of Hiaasen's adult novels), the former governor takes off to rescue Malley, and Richard joins him on an event-filled road trip. Richard's naiveté plays nicely against Skink's extremism.
