About the book

Travis McGee #11 In "Dress Her In Indigo", Travis McGee promises lovely Bix Bowie's father that he will find out the details of her death. The dead girl's trail takes him to Mexico, into the sad, bizarre world of the wandering drug freaks who find haven south of the border. But somebody else is on the same trail -- somebody who dispenses death with sudden, savage efficiency, and who makes the always intrepid McGee wish he wasn't quite so intrepid.

Subjects: Fiction, Private investigators, Travis McGee (Fictitious character), Mystery and detective stories, Florida, fiction, Fort lauderdale (fla.), fiction
