Description
John Dufresne has been hailed by the New York Times as “an original talent . . . [whose] humor is frightfully dark, but . . . dazzling.” I Don’t Like Where This Is Going continues the misadventures of therapist-on-the-run Wylie “Coyote” Melville. Wylie has witnessed a woman fall to her death outside the Luxor Hotel. Troubled by the ensuing cover-up, he becomes a man on a mission, enlisting the help of his old friend, an ace card player and master magician, to help find answers. We follow the duo’s escapades from poker tables to desert highways, in a thoroughly satisfying whodunit.
From the natural heir to Elmore Leonard and Carl Hiaasen, I Don’t Like Where This Is Going is a comic crime noir as thrilling and darkly wry as Vegas itself.
