About this title

Synopsis

Loretta Kovacs and Frank Marvelli, the fugitive-hunting heroes of Devil's Food and Double Espresso are back in another sexy, savvy yarn of lowlifes on the lam -- and the quirky characters who hunt them down.

Partners -- and lovers at last -- Frank and Loretta usually bust parole violators for the New Jersey Jump Squad. But their off-hours relationship runs into a couple of curvaceous speed bumps in the form of Vissa (short for Elvissa) Mylowe, a fellow PO and former flame of Frank's who is just too out-an-out irresistible for Loretta's piece of mind. When Vissa "borrows" Frank to help her track down a notorious career criminal who has surfaced in San Francisco, Loretta can't help trailing the pair all the way to California, just to keep an eye on them.

'Frisco is a long way from Jersey, in more ways than just miles, and Loretta and Frank soon find themselves in a sticky, tricky imbroglio involving a murderous menage a trois, a bisexual Chinese dominatrix, the I Ching, and the secret ingredient in Elmer Fudge Whirl ice cream.

Can a spanking new romance, and old-fashioned street smarts, survive the New Age twists and temptations of California? Or will Loretta's heart -- along with the rest of her vital organs -- be ground up into dogfood?

We fill those orders on a first come first serve basis, but will refund promptly any items that are out of stock. Since 1980 it has always been about the books. ALL kinds of books from 95 cent children's paperbacks to five figure rare and collectibles. A merging of the old and new is where we started, and it is where we are today. Our retail stores have always been places where a reader can rush in looking for a title needed for a term paper that is due the next day, or where bibliophiles can get lost "in the stacks" for as long as they wish.
