“Wiprud’s prose is wickedly
funny and thoroughly entertaining.”
— RT Book Reviews TOP PICK
Charged with recovering a sacred relic for his La Paz diocese, Morty Martinez
(of Feelers fame) hunts down a gold ring on the finger of New York City
billionaire Robert Tyson Grant. The holy quest lands Morty squarely in murderous
cross plots between the billionaire and his tabloid-prone stepdaughter, Purity.
Grant’s conniving girlfriend, a decapitation-happy hit man, and an avaricious
fortune teller have their own agendas that put Morty at the center of a
sensational murder trial in Mexico. All as told by Morty the night before his
execution.
The action and adventure continues this July, as Brian
Wiprud takes you on a journey through suspense, murder, and more!

“Wiprud’s prose is wickedly funny and thoroughly entertaining.”
— RT Book Reviews TOP PICK
“Morty Martinez, Brooklyn’s wealthiest ex-housecleaner, returns for another
round of criminal mischief and belly laughs.”
— Kirkus Book Reviews
“This relentlessly amusing novel is powered by a cast of decidedly quirky
characters and its idiosyncratic narrator's frequent digressions (like his
defense of breast implants). Fans of the comic crime fiction of Donald E.
Westlake and Charles Willeford will find a lot to like.”
— Publisher’s Weekly
“Wiprud has a true talent for writing witty crime fiction, and I can't wait for
his next book!”
— Fresh Fiction
