Travis McGee is John D MacDonald’s fictional hero. The FR name Travis McGee is Matt Bracken’s, and he too is an author. I grew up reading these novels, Travis was my kind of hero. And so is Matt. And I recommend the Enemies Foreign and Domestic website if you want to learn more.

Here is the full movie “Darker Than Amber” starring Rod Taylor as McGee. No sailboat, it’s as written with the houseboat Busted Flush.

By coincidence, I worked the phrase “darker than amber” into my new novel as a hat tip to John D. MacDonald.
