Summary

What could link a webcam girl, a cross-dressing police chief, and an escaped ferret?

A British nation torn by Brexit staggers on. Frankie Ferret, a preschool children's TV celebrity, escapes into sewers of London and surely is dead. The people unite in grief. Police chiefs, counselors, and politicos stand in tear-stained sincerity with the common people. Viktor Pinupskin of Russia offers a genetically modified bear cub with his own face as a substitute. Internet bots urge a vote and attempt to sway the masses. Chaos and panic threaten to destroy the economy.

Into the mix steps young police inspector, Crispin Bissel. His mission is to lead the search and target PR for the cops. His ex-girlfriend, Selena Fontesse, is a mature ex-webcam girl specializing in veggie porn. She has the looks and the bosom to comfort a people broken by sorrow.

Could love be rekindled over an open drain?

Could Frankie be alive?

Could a billionaire, a hot air balloon, a pop star, and a staring messianic child bring happiness back to a population in despair?

What if the big plans were to fail?

And what if there was a cover-up?

A deplorable basket-case of a book. All right-thinking people should be offended. Cross-dressing vegan cannibals will love this story. There's no safe space on campus when a ferret like Frankie gets into the pipes. A tender love story, an outrageous unfair satire, an exposé of the media-cult whirl in which we live, where news, fake news, and spin are the currencies of coercion.

Buy this audiobook and forgive yourself for laughing. It's not incorrect if you didn't mean to.
