About the book

Also known as Tropical Issue

The narrator is a Scots-born flower child who has become a celebrity make-up artist despite seemingly insurmountable handicaps. She becomes involved with Johnson Johnson in a sometimes deadly, sometimes hilarious, romp across the Atlantic Ocean and various Caribbean islands in pusuit of drug smugglers, who use murder and piracy to gain their ends
