Jimmy Saravanamuttu, a lower echelon hood from Seattle, is sent to Phoenix to investigate what appears to be the rigged outcome of a high-stakes college basketball game. Meanwhile, an Arizona detective named Two Birds seeks a stolen Georgia O'Keeffe painting. Somehow, this morally conflicted odd couple comes together in Dana Pearson's "Two Birds," a darkly comic and violent tale of greed, betrayal, and sod. From the city streets of Seattle to the deserts of Arizona, this fast-paced mystery follows two seemingly separate paths until they converge - as well they should - in Marilyn Monroe's swimming pool.Written while under the influence of Dashiell Hammett, "Two Birds" shows how sometimes we don't even know what it is we're after - and when we find out, we may wonder why we went after it in the first place.
