When Bernard Piffy arrived in Gaza City carrying a dog in a
birdcage he didn't think he would be there long. All he had to do
was find Yasser Arafat's Fuhrerbunker, steal a monitor from the
Keepers of the Fleas and bring it back to Asma bint Marwan. It was
a half day's work at the most. Then he could take a dip in the
Mediterranean and fly back to England--or better yet to the States
for a few beers with the boys at Joe's Bar and Grille and Gun Club.
Then he could start afresh on the trail of Yaser Abdel Said, the
Dallas cabdriver who had murdered his daughters, Sarah and Amina
Said, in a fit of Islamic rage. No one would ever mistake Piffy for
Mike Hammer or Shell Scott but he was as tough as a ten-penny-nail
soaked in Kickapoo Joy Juice and run through Dante's Inferno. He
had been a three-time Junior Calf-Roping Champion and a
close-combat instructor in the Marine Corps. He had won hundreds of
skeet-shooting championships. He had went over the falls in a
barrel; he had survived on goat pee and lichens while lost in the
Sierra Madre. But he wasn't prepared for what he encountered in
Gaza City--the land of Yasser Arafat, of car bombings, honor
killings and nasty old men filled with 1,400 years of hatred. Che
Guevara was there and so was Jimmy Carter. Guevara had been hired
by the Keepers to take care of some loose ends--one of them being
Bernard Piffy. And Aisha was there--lovely little Aisha who had
saved the ten-year-old version of Bernard Piffy from getting beat
up in an alley behind the Ahmad Madrassa in London, England. Her
father had sent her to Gaza to study at the Osama bin Laden
Madrassa for Girls. Gaza was also the haunt of Sheikh Rahman
al-Kabibble, the noted Islamic scholar and theologian. The Sheikh
had just issued a fatwa legalizing marriage to girls as young as
nine years old. According to the studies he had made, nine-year-old
girls provided more sexual satisfaction than grown women. He would
stake his life on this. He would find the ten-year-old calf-roping
version of Bernard Piffy so exciting, so delighting Unfortunately
he was old enough to be the ten-year-olds great-grandfather. Some
of Piffy enemies--and they were legion--had followed him to Gaza.
The Protectors of Virtue and the Preventors of Vice were there
ready to do the bidding of Prince Chauncey sixth cousin
twice-removed of the mightiest oil potentate in the world. Death
lurked around every corner and beneath every prayer rug. But Piffy
had his dog in a birdcage and if things got really rough, he could
always call on his guardian angel, the inimitable St. Anthony. And
there was Wheatley W. Wheatley, Abu Afaq's Gaza agent with her
one-hundred percent Mujahideen pizzle whip. And the great Stockton
Bonds would be along on the trail of Piffy and the Fleas. America's
last great private eye would have his hands full...
