| Publisher Description: You can run from your past but you can't hide from it. That's especially true for Dennis, a small-time campus radical in his youth who's now the manager of a chain of body shops in Northern California. For Dennis a good day is minding the stores, carrying out the orders of the chain's mysterious owner, and keeping a very low profile. A good night is when the explosion dream doesn't wake him up sweating. His comfortable life is shattered when Wendy, an old acquaintance from his college days, shows up with a badly damaged car and the key to blowing his cover. Despite his initial fears, and to the surprise of both, their renewed friendship develops warily into something deeper. Then a ghost from their past arrives to haunt them, an ex-con carrying more unwelcome baggage than just his still-smoldering flame for his former girlfriend, who's now taken up residence with Dennis. Complicating matters is a toupee-wearing TV pitchman with a weakness for cocaine and vulnerable women, a female FBI agent with a thing for older men with toupees, and a motley collection of bikers, thugs, and oddballs, all of whom threaten to tear Dennis and Wendy apart and blow up their lives like the bomb that separated them years ago. |
