Ebook short description
On the edge of the universe awaits the parking lot. And the plaza. The peasants. The innocents. The cripples. The children's games. And death. Where lives unwind in Bruegelish irony. Day Shift, the first in a series of three jazz novels.Extended description
The Detective waits for the customers to file into the drug store. Someone is guilty. Of something. Deborah Hall primes herself for a job interview. For a job she so dearly craves. If the price is right. The giant Everest looks down at his nose. And thinks he is the Prime Minister. In a modern version of Pieter Bruegel's the Nederlands proverbs and children's games are transformed into stories of folly, brutality, comic grace and cosmic irony. Day Shift. The first in a series of three jazz novels.Adult-content rating:
