    About this ebook

    Armed with a Glock and a bottle of Jack, accompanied by her adventurous Grandma Rose, Eve starts on a cross-country trip to find her hero - Steven Tyler - and to ask him to explain the meaning of life. Along the way, she escapes murderous circus performers, becomes a Girl Scout cookie and meets a Wild Man in a sharkskin suit. ' .

    . . an exhilarating ride, a kind of CANDIDE in reverse, as Eve, as unpredictable as Boadicea on a bad hair-AND-Roman day, learns to see through her false shell, which has imprisoned and impoverished her.

    Every scene (with not a single wasted word daring to show itself) packs a witty punch . . .

    A really remarkable first novel, which I can fully recommend to the cool and the uncool alike.' -Steve Redwood
