Publisher's summary

Nebula Award Finalist

Welcome to the future....

Where the cream of humanity has left for the outworlds, leaving the rest behind; where genetically redesigned T-rexes have supplanted pit bulls; population control measures have created an underclass of Urchins, unlicensed children who have no rights - not even the right to exist; where wireheads with chips in their brains live vicariously through the downloaded experiences of others; and where the UN has been turned into a brothel known as Dydeetown, peopled by clones of famous personalities from history and entertainment.

Where a Dydeetown clone of Jean Harlow asks a down-and-out private eye named Sig Dreyer to find her missing lover. Though Sig loathes the idea of working for a clone, Harlow-c is paying in gold, and that’s hard to turn down. Just a missing-person case...should be simple enough.

But neither realizes that Sig’s investigation will tip the first domino in a cascade of events that will turn their world upside down.

Loved it written and spoken

I am a huge F Paul Wilson fan. His LaNague series is one of my favorites. If you love Heinlein and Spider Robinson, this will not disappoint.

Good gumshoe tale.

A good old fashioned tale of a big city gumshoe with bad habits and connections helping out a damsel in distress, all set in the LaNague science fiction universe.

Outstanding

I’m a long time fan of F. Paul Wilson, but this is different from my favorite Repairman Jack genre. Nonetheless, I loved this. It stands up to his best work.
