Book Description:
Kyle Brightman—late of the
advertising industry and soon-to-be-late of the 5th floor psych ward—has a job
offer he can’t refuse. A new resort in the Caribbean is looking for an art
director.
Kyle soon finds himself on the
Isle of St. Agrippina working alongside a beautiful copywriter with an icy
handshake. Questions arise: Why does the resort management team sport spray-on
tans in the Bahamas? How can the resort offer such cheap vacation packages?
What does one do with vats of Astroglide?
To get the answers, Kyle must
first navigate a series of wildly unpredictable events with a cast of even more
wildly unpredictable characters, including a seductress jungle assassin, her
partially paralyzed talking Chihuahua, an Ivy League Rastafarian seaplane
captain, Kyle’s ex-psych ward roommate, a former Haliburton mercenary, and a
French tavern owner with a fondness for goats, all set to the greatest hits of
the 70’s. Pablo Cruise never felt so right.

Excerpt:
Chapter One
“THERE’S A REASON WE PUT PATIENTS IN
RESTRAINTS THIS WAY,” Hap the orderly explained. “See before, when it became
necessary to administer a four-point restraint on someone, we’d just do the
standard two feet to each side of the gurney and two wrists by the waist.
