Naked came the manatee.
New York, G. P. Putnam's Sons: 1-201.
–Rev.: People, Mar. 3, 1997: 35. Originally serialized in The Miami Herald Tropic Sunday magazine, 1995-96. Written by 13 authors (one chapter each) and set in south Florida, this is the first mystery novel to feature a manatee as a major character (he appears in each chapter and actually contributes to the action). The cover, title page, and chapter title pages, however, are unaccountably adorned with the silhouette of a dugong.
The book was evidently inspired by Naked Came the Stranger, a 1969 literary spoof by Mike McGrady and a group of other journalists writing under the pen name "Penelope Ashe".
