Famous radio private eye Guy Noir leaps from "A Prairie Home
Companion" to the page
On the 12th floor of the Acme Building, on a cold February day
in St. Paul, Guy Noir looks down the barrel of a loaded revolver in
the hands of geezer gangster Joey Roast Beef who is demanding to
hear what lucrative scheme Guy is cooking up with
stripper-turned-women's-studies-professor Naomi Fallopian. Everyone
wants to know-Joey, Lieutenant McCafferty, reporter Gene Williker,
Guy's ex-girlfriend Sugar O'Toole, the despicable Larry B. Larry,
the dreamboat Scarlett Anderson, Mr. Kress of the FDA-and Guy faces
them one by one, as he and Naomi pursue a dream of earning
gazillions by selling a surefire method of dramatic weight loss. In
this whirlwind caper Guy faces danger, falls in love, and faces off
with the capo del capo del grande primo capo Johnny Banana.
