Editor's Notes and Comments:
Product Description:
Travis McGee is too busy with his houseboat to pay attention to the little old man with the missing postage stamps. Except these are no ordinary stamps. They are rare stamps. Four hundred thousand dollars worth of rare. And if McGee doesn't recognize their value, perhaps Mary Alice McDermit does, a six-foot knockout who knows all the ways to a boat bum's heart. Only it's not McGee's heart that's in danger. Because a syndicate killer has put a contract on McGee. A killer who knows something about stamps . . . and even more about McGee.
From the Paperback edition.

Great book. When John D. passed, we lost a gripping and insightful weaver of great fiction.

I love all of the Travers Mcgee novels and now own all of them, this one is as good as the rest.
I guess collecting all of the series speaks for itself, but here in Australia it's dificult to find them. Over the years I have looked for them whilst on holidays, but was able to get the remaining books from AMAZON and that has pleased me no end.

I think this was the 20th book I've read in the Travis McGee series, but it's the very first one I didn't like that much. There were the usual profound nuggets of McGee wisdom and philosophy ("Today, my friends, we each have one day less, every one of us. And joy is the only thing that slows the clock.") But MacDonald belabors the intricacies of the plot and declaws the tension when McGee starts asking far too many "What if...?" questions.
Rated by buyers -
Well, as usual with John D.'s Travis books, there is a twisting and winding story that creates enough intrigue to entice a reader. Yes, it's now a bit outdated, but who cares? Those of us that love and relate to Travis and Meyer can be quite forgiving, can't we? Even if we're trying desperately to find our own local and friendly marinas. The developers are just about to make us anchor out in the big pond.
Rated by buyers -
The Busted Flush is the place to be. It's John D. MacDonald's gift to mankind.
