It's Mayberry On Meth!Sex, drugs and double-knit polyester provide the key ingredients in this decidedly off-center take of the traditional detective novel. Scrambled Hard-Boiled is the story of a young man named Jay Dafoe coming into his own as private detective. Dafoe learns the in and outs of snooping into other people's lives and how to take advantage and profit from it. Philip Marlowe, he ain't.Full of dark humor, the novel is a tale of coming of age in the New South with its class and racial conflicts and the unfortunate habit of killing one another that people have always had in that part of the country. The traditional elements of the hard-boiled murder mystery are here: homicides, adultery, greed, crooked lawyers, mean cops and even meaner broads. Then, just to make things interesting, some regional spices like faith healing, homophobia, rednecks, county fairs and inter-species wrestling have been added to the recipe.
