Dominick Prince is out of options. He's lived in Detroit long enough to use his experiences of crime and poverty to fuel his writing, but he's ready to move on to bigger and better things. Dominick's thesis advisor, the elitist Parker Farmington, refuses to let Dominick pass his class, thinking the genre of potboilers beneath him. Which means rather than becoming the next literary sensation, Dominick will spend his life asking customers if they'd like fries with that. And if that's the only plan, kidnapping doesn't seem like such a bad plan B. So if Farmington won't pass him willfully, Dominick will make him do it forcefully. And once he has Farmington's signature, fame and fortune are within Dominick's grasp. But while Dominick may have a devious and brilliant mind on the page, in reality he's more Betty White than Walter White. And before he can write 'the plot thickens,' Dominick's plan begins to go horribly wrong. Teaming with Farmington's jilted mistress and her loose-cannon bounty hunter brother, Dominick finds that if even the best laid plans go awry, then his doesn't have a snowball's chance in hell. And being a great writer won't matter much if he's six feet under. Keine Bibliotheksbeschreibungen gefunden. |

MURDER BOY has one of the most epically bizarre casts of characters I've read in years. More than once I had to go back and re-read paragraphs, sometimes a whole chapter, because I just couldn't believe what was going on. And I mean that in the best possible way.
This is Bryon Quertermous' first novel, and there's apparently a sequel on the way. I can't imagine what's coming next. ( )
