INSTANT NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLER! Christopher Moore returns with a zany noir set in post-World War II San Francisco, featuring a colorful cast, including a hapless bartender, his Chinese sidekick, a sharp-edged doll, a tight-lipped Air Force general, a wisecracking waif, and Petey, a black mamba. In the summer of 1947, an enigmatic blonde named Stilton walks into the saloon where Sammy "Two Toes" Tiffin tends bar, sparking instant attraction. However, before Sammy can act, General Remy arrives with urgent business, as Sammy is the go-to guy for connections on the street. Meanwhile, a suspicious object has been spotted near Mount Rainier, followed by a mysterious plane crash in Roswell, New Mexico. The real strangeness unfolds on the streets of San Francisco. When one of Sammy's schemes backfires and Stilton mysteriously disappears, he must confront his dark secrets and navigate bizarre occurrences to find her. Combining elements of Raymond Chandler and Damon Runyon with a dash of Bugs Bunny, this story is a wild ride through the noir genre, infused with Moore's signature humor and wit.
