He runs up against Casper, a jewel thief with an affinity for cursed jewels such as the one Jules wears as part of his compact. Tales of derring-do and doing it ensue.

Very weird and fun; surprisingly uplifting given the premise. In the end it's not that deep? I guess I would describe it as a surreal t4t romance novel. But I definitely enjoyed it. I laughed out loud at the play, and Sam wanted to know what I was laughing at, and I was like "I can't read this out loud in a shoe store." ( )
