In the seaport city of New London, Connecticut, newcomer Connor Raposo has just witnessed a gruesome motorcycle accident on Bank Street. At least he thinks it was an accident. But then he sees a familiar man - who else would wear an Elvis pompadour in this day and age? - lurking around the crime scene. Where does Connor know him from? And why does everyone he knows keep showing up dead?

Critic reviews

"Another darkly comic whodunit from veteran novelist Dobyns...a lively, laugh-out-loud winner." ( Kirkus Reviews)
"Gold Dagger Award-finalist Dobyns' genius for dark comedy makes this intricate crime novel a triumph that will appeal to Elmore Leonard and Carl Hiassen fans." ( Publishers Weekly)

Fabulous book.

It takes getting used to, but it's worth it. It's not really a mystery story, although it is sort of a satire. It's just plain subtly funny.

Very funny

Funny. Lots of characters to keep up with but that is part of the fun.

Fun book

strange style

The narrator does his best but the characters are unlikeable and the plot is not particularly compelling.

Not his best
