Your name is John Rainwater. You're an aging and penniless private investigator. You may have killed someone. You and your client are up to your necks in something terrifying. The female spy who is supposed to be keeping you alive may be insane. And tomorrow things could get really bad.
It began when the rich and beautiful Morgana Trehane burst into your low-rent office near the New Orleans docks, claiming that she has just escaped from kidnappers who grilled her about something called White Stone, about which she claims to know.norhing.
Within 24 hours you and your client are in Miami, where ex-Mossad agent Roni Miller - the most violent woman you ever met - has plunged you into a tangle of lies, greed, and deadly peril.
You are vastly out of your depth, the body count is rising, and all you know for certain is that if this operation you've stumbled into fails, you, the lovely Morgana, and everyone else involved will end up in unmarked graves so that people in power can deny that it ever existed.
Idiot's Tale is unlike any thriller you've read, a noir parody careening between mordant humor and nihilistic darkness, on its way to an ending that will haunt you.
If you're a fan of fast-paced, smart thrillers with a very dark edge, you should read Idiot's Tale. Go ahead. We dare you!
