Summary

Brian doesn't sell used cars. He sells quality pre-owned vehicles. Like many salesmen, he doesn't own a car but borrows various autos from the lot. After spending the night with his girlfriend, he goes outside to warm his ride and Cirrus, a garbage man slash ex-con, deserts his trash route and steals the idling BMW. Brian can't call the law for help because his girlfriend is married to a local police detective. Rather than betray his paramour's secret, he sets out on foot to recover the car using his own wits and resources.

Farcical

Started off so well with excellent narration. Similar to a Carl Haaisen novel; laugh out loud at times, the outrageous events in the days following the theft of BMW get more and more far fetched till I had to give up 3 hrs before the end. I couldn't work out how this tale could possibly get to a satisfactory end, so intricate and many were the twists and turns. That being said, the tale lacks pace and impetus which stifles any interest in staying the course. SADLY DISAPPOINTING
