On the rare occasions that I’m driving on the Pinellas barrier islands and spot an OG beach motel those low-slung, cozy, pastel-painted relics tucked in among the towering condos and raucous bars I feel a little warm tug of nostalgia for the funky, friendly places I remember.
Mary Kay Andrews’ imagination works differently. Give her a mom ’n’ pop beach motel and she’ll give you fugitives and scam artists, snowbirds in bloody battle over their pecking order, maybe even murder and mayhem along with the sparkling sands and swaying hibiscus.
