📮 Billy Verité by Rick Harsch (.PDF)

In this rollicking adventure, Rick Harsch again displays the flair for sophisticated dark comedy and detective parody that earned him high marks in The Driftless Zone. In this second novel, Billy Verite, the title character is a former snitch, a failed gumshoe, an ugly man who believes he can succeed on style--his version of style. Enter Lola, a sexy, sneering moll who, for a variety of reasons, finds herself forced to hide out with Billy from a sinister underworld kingpin named Skunk. The two take refuge on a deserted island in the Mississippi River where Billy creates a fortress full of traps and homemade weaponry, bearing such names as Death Pit Six, Binocular Tree, and Forbidden Sector II. Here, he and Lola haphazardly prepare for their inevitable showdown with soon-to-be-mayor Skunk and two traitor cops who want them dead. As Billy and Lola join forces against Skunk, the narrator takes over the detective work in a novel-within-the-novel, attempting to solve the mystery of a murdered prostitute while setting the stage for Billy's escape from a faltering seedy civilization to the twisted concoction of his own brave new world.
