Strip Tease is a 1993 novel by Carl Hiaasen. Like most of his other novels, it is a crime novel set in Florida and featuring Hiassen's characteristic style of black humor. It was a New York Times bestseller in 1993. Times reviewer Donald E. Westlake described Hiaasen's style as "a cross between Dave Barry and Elmore Leonard." While noting that Hiaasen's books are somewhat formulaic, he said that
- In among his freaks and obsessives... the author has dropped a real honest-to-God human being, an appealing young woman named Erin Grant. Her presence... makes the cartoon nastiness around her less cartoony and more nasty than in previous Hiaasen novels.
In 1996, it was adapted to the screen, under the title Striptease, by Andrew Bergman, starring Demi Moore, Burt Reynolds, and Ving Rhames.
