This funny, exuberant novel captures the reader with the grand
sweep of seven-foot-tall David Lizard Hochmeyer s larger-than-life
quest to unravel the mystery surrounding his parents deaths. It s a
journey laden with pro football stars, a master chef and his
beautiful transvestite lover, a world-famous ballerina and her
English rocker husband, and a sister who s as brilliant as she is
unstable. A wildly entertaining, plot-twisting novel of murder,
seduction, and revenge--rich in incident, expansive in character,
and lavish in setting"--Life Among Giants"is an exhilarating
adventure. Editors pick for Amazon s Best of 2012
