Does exactly what it says in the title. Totally inspired by Stephen King and my (golly) real-life experiences in and around Norfolk, Virginia during the early fall of 2004 1 . This one moves fast. It’s got swagger. It curses way too much. And it’s covered in bloodshed and suspense. It’s also got some good jokes.
It's like a cross between Alice in Wonderland and Crime and Punishment. Like Alice, the main character is thrust into an unfamiliar environment filled with strange characters and forced to learn the rules as she goes. The book never shifts from her perspective, and also like Alice, it is only her resourcefulness and newfound inner strength that gets her out alive.
And like Raskolnikov, the main character’s spiritual growth comes with a body count.
Also, I should probably point out that I am not an animal rights activist. I neither support nor condemn their cause. And this book is not concerned with either side of any ideology, it is interested only in the contradictions and rationalizations that come from total commitment to a cause, the paranoia that mindset creates and its potential for violence.
