If You See Your Father, Shoot Him

By Carlo Morrissey

Book Overview

Rodney's dead father just arrived in his kitchen. And that's not even the weirdest thing that will happen to him today. Rodney, a thirty-something salesman who spends his days caring for his chronically ill mother, leads a sedate life - that is, until the ghost of the philandering father he never knew shows up. Still wearing the absurd Batman costume he'd donned the night he died, the nearly departed Max is determine to teach Rodney the fine art of scamming. Within twenty-four hours of Max's arrival, Rodney tangles with a prostitute and her bipolar pimp, witnesses a murder, and gets kidnapped by the mob. But through it all, Max is stunned to find his unassuming son becoming the unlikely hero in his own life story. Tackling love, loyalty, and loss with aplomb, this unique piece of funny literary fiction about family life filters dead-serious subjects through a zany cast of characters and a madcap delivery that's sure to ake you smile. Both heartfelt and hilarious, Rodney's tale will keep you riveted from the first page to the last.
