Product Information
A screwball detective uncovers a conspiracy made up by a syndicate of dentists who believe flossing your teeth is bad for you. A hapless detective clashes with violent drug dealers and renegade dentists in DeMicoli's raucous adventure set in a town outside Oakland, California. Down-on-his-luck private eye Hugo Picoli arrives at his storefront office to find a potential client waiting for him: Farrah Mason, who says that her husband, Jolly, a prominent dentist, has disappeared. Recently, Jolly's mother, Lady Mason, drove her Rolls-Royce into a pole after being frightened by the antics of skateboarding teenager Mill Moffett. According to Farrah, the last time anyone saw Jolly was when he dragged that Mill kid outta his trailer, stuffed him in the trunk, and sped off to who-knows-where. Farrah hands Hugo $10,000 in cash and asks him to track her spouse down, suggesting that he look for clues at the Crowns Social Club, a hangout for the upscale dentist crowd. Before Hugo sets off on his new assignment, DeMicoli pauses to fill in details about the PI's less-than-illustrious two-year career with the Soma Arbor Spring police department. Later, at the clubhouse, Hugo has some preliminary misadventures which result in him receiving gold veneers, and he's offered a few magic mushrooms-giving the author the opportunity to take readers on a frenzied psychedelic ride. -Kirkus ReviewsProduct Identifiers
