Funny, frantic, and with a subversive intelligence, Aaron Petrovich's Keaton-esque heroes, Detectives Smith and Smith, stumble upon a bizarre new religion while following the trails of a murdered mathematician's missing organs. Their investigation to discover the truth -- about the murder, the mob of men and women who may have eaten him, and ultimately the nature of truth, sanity, and identity -- leads them into a lunatic asylum from which they may never leave.

Writing in a pitch-perfect language reminiscent of Beckett, Chandler, and Duras, Petrovich elevates rapid-fire banter to a transformative musical litany that carries the detectives, and the reader, right along with it. But he never lets us forget that his narrators remain, hysterically -- and tragically -- human.
