"Demented and fun! This book is
a hoot!"
—Harlan Coben, author of Gone for Good, Tell No One and the Myron Bolitar
series.
PIPSQUEAK is a novel about a New York
taxidermy/collectibles dealer and his gal Angie at odds with a swing-band
conspiracy to undo the information age. It all centers on the murder of a biker,
a mysterious brawny red head and a stolen TV squirrel puppet named Pipsqueak.
Garth's black-sheep brother Nicholas gets in the mix, and embroils Garth and
Angie in a search for Pipsqueak that entangles them in a violent anti-technology
cult fronted by a pontifical bandleader. Is Pipsqueak the key to a
government-sanctioned mind control scheme via high-definition TV? Not if Garth
has anything to say about it.
