Max and Friends: This Is Not a Children'S Book

Max Crater is a private investigator who construes all his clients to be his friends. His mundane life took a dramatic shift when one of his friends was shot to death and another friend embroiled him tangentially into the recreational drug business and directly into the intrusion of a Russian crime syndicate. Along the way, he found new meaning to such words as brothel, paternity, cremation, bloody stubs, evolution, and (ah!) true love.
