De Sade II: A Brown Recluse Romance

Fiction. Jim Smythe works for what he calls "The Peach Factory," a non-profit arts organization whose job is to cull the rich and garner gifts and grants. Jim's also a ladies' man--but don't blame him, oh no--for he suffers from priapism, that is, an eternal erection. Bring in Molly, whose legs go all the way up, as does her up-to-date American Buddhism. Besmitten and besotted, Jim reforms. Suddenly though, Molly disappears and Jim is brought before a grand jury to defend himself against embezzlement and perhaps murder. A highly comic novel featuring a brown recluse spider, a teenage detective, several con artist "artists," and an eccentric, affluent grey-hair and her lawyer, both of whom are looking to mate with the perfect father.
