Book description
R. Doubting Thomas Perdue, tough Aussie former P. I. and jailbird, is
in trouble, and it can only get worse. Tom's *Feng shui* consultancy
implodes when some bastard drives a Mack truck through his heritage
office. Fatal things keep happening to his phones. And who's been
blabbing about his racehorse-doping past? The love of his life has made
a ten-year vow of celibacy to the Virgin Mary. Tom's Goth daughter's
girlfriend's obese sister has vanished, extremely foul play suspected.
Meanwhile, an unusual racing camel named Nile Fever has become an animal
of interest to the Australian Federal Police, and Tom is up to his neck
in the middle of the mess. I'm Dying Here is a darkly comic crime caper
that leaves no taboo, or cell phone, unviolated. "This is a comic,
crazy, original crime novel. You won't find another one like it this
year, or, more likely, ever." Bill Crider. "What it reminds me
of, powerfully, is a Donald Westlake comic novel about Dormunder. If you
did smart, funny caper novels, I suspect you'll like this one as much as
I do." Todd Mason. "Think anything Joseph Wambaugh, and then
make it much more funny, and you start to get an idea of how much fun
this is to read." Amazon five-star review.
