Farnsworth's Revenge
When your ex-boss's sex doll goes missing, and you're the prime suspect, what could possibly go wrong?
Rollo Hemphill's life has never been simple, but now it's downright surreal. Fleeing Paris after a dubious charity scandal, he's pulled back into chaos when Hugo Farnsworth's most prized possession - a lifelike doll mistaken for a real celebrity - vanishes from his yacht in the South of France.
Armed with nothing but disguises, confusing codewords, and Felicia's occasional financial lifeline, Rollo must navigate spy games, shady art collectors, and painfully introspective nights in creepy laundromats. Oh, and the doll's severed ear might just hold the key to meeting the crazed kidnapper's bizarre demands.
From the Riviera to the Bosphorus, Rollo chases answers, avoids jail, and maybe - just maybe - learns to grow up and make it home.
In this outrageous sequel to Rubber Babes, award-winning novelist Gerald Everett Jones serves up farce, philosophy, and juggernaut fun.
Farnsworth's Revenge is a sendup of modern love, scandal, and the wild things we do to make things right when we fear we've had it all wrong all along.
"On the lam in Paris, computer geek-turned-shamus Rollo Hemphill is on the prowl for a kidnapped blonde. A rich old man's plaything, this doll has a famous face, legs up to here, and all the right equipment. A soft-boiled dick if ever there was one, Rollo learns too late that, as usual, the yolk is on him." - Marvin J. Wolf, author of For Whom The Shofar Blows and other Rabbi Ben Mysteries
