Mickey Fortney and his partner Leeds are water cops on a patrol boat on San Diego's Mission Bay, where the roughest action consists of scoping out body-sculpted beauties on pleasure craft, rescuing boating bozos run aground, jeering at lifeguards, and hauling in the occasional floater who washes up.
But now the America's Cup international sailing regattas have come to town and suddenly San Diego is swarming with yacht crazies from every nationality, the cuppies who want to love them and the tourists, racing spies, scam artists and hookers who all want their piece of the action. One especially fiery redhead cuppie named Blaze, full of mischief, full of hell, tweaks every one of Fortneys' and Leeds' cop instincts with her odd behavior. She will lead the cops along a bizarre criminal trail that would be hilariously improbable if it didn't wind up in a pair of murders right on the eve of the biggest race of all.
Filled with all of Joseph Wambaugh's trademarks--laugh-out-loud writing, crackling dialogue, outrageous excitement, and, of course, plenty of raunchy, veteran cops who leap off the pages--Floaters is Joseph Wambaugh at the very top of his form.
