Description

Clyde Colson has developed a raging drug problem, and Dags Bissell, his old friend, thinks he can cure him by reaching out to Clyde's family for help. The two men are estranged, but briefly connect when Clyde calls Dags, accuses him of ruining his life, and proves it by putting a bullet through his drug-addled brain. This fast-paced novel, inspired by true life events, combines a thriller story with a personal exploration Dags can no longer avoid. Along the way he reunites with a long forgotten lover, Sterling Rodgers, who brings the closely held secret to Clyde's funeral service that takes them both on a journey that explores the complexities of relationships and the philosophy of suicide, often in a humorous way. Although Clyde's suicide is extreme, the book touches all of us within our innate nature of relationships, with dear friends, with romance, and with family.
