Century City Police Detective Lacy Throbb was as hard-boiled as they come. Gangsters had tried to kill her and beat her and it had always worked out badly for them (though Lacy was surprisingly easy to rape, and for reasons that might challenge the very nature of reality! This 30,000-word novella is a hard-boiled crime noir parody, a science fiction story and taboo erotica with a touch of gonzo!
Detective Lacy Throbb of the Century City Police Department was a loose cannon who wrote her own rules and broke them, too! Criminals in Century City had a love-hate relationship with her. They hated the way things always came out badly for them whenever they tried to maim or kill her. And they loved how easy it was to rape her, especially if she was tied up.But there was a method to this madness and it would take the combined efforts of a numbers runner, Lacy's bestie informant Junie Jamieson, a genius hacker and Lacy herself to figure out what it was, as Lacy tracks down the murderers responsible for an horrific cold case.
This is a genre-bending story that's part taboo erotica, part hard-boiled crime noir, part science fiction and a little bit gonzo. If you had to categorize it, you might say it's pulp detective sci fi parody erotica, but that doesn't really do the story justice. It doesn't just break the mold, it CRUSHES the mold!
"I, The Glider Gun" is in the same universe (in fact, the same city) as "Junie Jamieson, Snoopy Reporter: Captured by Gangsters" but you don't have to read "Captured by Gangsters" to enjoy "I, the Glider Gun," it is a completely stand-alone story. "I, The Glider Gun" is over 30,000 words in length.
