[edit] Summary

Spoiler warning: Plot and/or ending details follow.

Honey Santana becomes irritated by telemarketers and invites a particularly obnoxious one, who works for Relentless, Inc., to a phony real estate promotion - which she describes as an eco-tour - in the Florida Everglades in order to teach him a lesson. Fry, Honey's wise and protective twelve year old son, is always wary about his mother's schemes. It is thus that telemarketers Boyd Shreave and his reluctant mistress Eugenie Fonda make their way from Texas to Dismal Key in Florida with Honey, only to be followed by Fry, his courageous ex-drug runner father, and several others, including Louis Piejack, Honey's perverted and disfigured ex-employer, who is unhealthily obsessed with her. Also on the island are a young half-Seminole man named Sammy Tigertail (also known as Sammy, and Thlocklo) and his very willing captive, Gillian, a sex-obsessed, warmhearted Florida State coed. Various odd events surface along the way.

Fry is both athletic and brave and very intelligent. He is only twelve but looks fourteen. He loves both his parents but does not believe they could get back together.
