Product Description

Gare Marx has been a PI for all of five minutes when he discovers he sucks at it. The mob wants money he never borrowed, he's suspected of murdering someone he hasn't met, and he's hired to find a woman who may be involved in some extremely shady business. That, and his secretary is an amoral jiu jitsu-loving sociopath.

With only hours before his life is ended in multiple (possibly concurrent) horrible ways, he has to dig up the courage and/or resources to solve the case(s), before the cases "solve" him.

This review is from: Fission Chips (Kindle Edition)

Gare Marx is a foul-mouthed detective who isn't really great at his job. When the mob believes he owes them money, his life goes from bad to worse in record time.
Fission Chips is a fast-paced, hilarious mystery, with one of the most offensive and incapable characters ever. The side-characters are awesome, the absurdity of it all is wonderful, and the violence is plenty.
