Gumshoe Conrad Metcalf has problems-there’s a rabbit in his
waiting room and a trigger-happy kangaroo on his tail. Near-future
Oakland is a brave new world where evolved animals are members of
society, the police monitor citizens by their karma levels, and
mind-numbing drugs such as Forgettol and Acceptol are all the
rage.Metcalf has been shadowing Celeste, the wife of an affluent
doctor. Perhaps he’s falling a little in love with her at the same
time. When the doctor turns up dead, our amiable investigator finds
himself caught in a crossfire between the boys from the
Inquisitor’s Office and gangsters who operate out of the back room
of a bar called the Fickle Muse.Mixing elements of sci-fi, noir,
and mystery, this clever first novel from the author of Motherless
Brooklyn is a wry, funny, and satiric look at all that the future
may hold.
