Back in '68 they made killer music ... now their music is killing them. It's been thirty years since Joe Portugal put his electric guitar away. Maybe that's one reason he's suffering a serious case of the mid-life doldrums. Then Joe stumbles upon a chance to put the band he was in as a teenager back together. And maybe his life too. All he has to do is find the lead guitarist, who hasn't been seen since the '70s. But when he starts to look, it's quickly clear that someone doesn't want to see a reunion tour ... someone who's very handy with a gun. 'A solid, intelligent mystery ... add Walpow's marvellous sense of humour and you'll see why he's winning new fans every day.' - Jan Bouyrke, Edgar-award-winnning author of Bones 'Snappy Chandleresque dialogue.' - Los Angeles Times
