Carl Hiaasen, author of such classic Florida crime thrillers like Striptease, Stormy Weather, and Skinny Dip, has a new novel out this season, and it's geared towards young adult readers. (You know, instead of old adult readers.) It's about two students who investigate the disappearance of their biology teacher.

Here's the cover, but pay special notice to the title:

Scat...

Okay, maybe I'm just f***ed up.
