Plot summary
A chance encounter leads to the traveling duo of Serge and Coleman picking up a third member, a drug-addicted stripper named Rachael who reminds them of their late associate Sharon, and the dysfunctional group becomes involved in house-sitting, Serge hijacking support group meetings, and a reunion with Serge and Coleman's old neighbors Jim and Martha Davenport. A mid-life crisis, their daughter's engagement to a vacuous rich man, and their own justified wariness of Serge leave the Davenports wary of Serge's presence, but he may also be their only salvation against the vengeful cousins of some criminals Serge killed and a group of smugglers who eventually become convinced that Jim is a dangerous secret agent who they must kill. 2008 American novels Novels by Tim Dorsey William Morrow and Company books {{2000s-crime-novel-stub
