breakfastinfur is a crime novel with a killer twist - a Noir-on-acid comedy guaranteed to tickle more than just your funny bone. Night falls here in the city which never wakes up, let alone sleeps. It's 1991, and as bombs fall over Baghdad, the inhabitants of this Antipodean Big Easy are about to learn that February, and not April, is indeed the cruelest month. Time to say farewell to Mark Throdeus - the suave politician with an uncomfortably dark secret - and to welcome a new cast of berserk warriors: Babalou Mendoza, a transsexual mafia don, Goh Suzuki, the vengeful Yakuza boss, Virgo Schlong, Mervin Blagg, Ray Montego, Big Wheeze Andy Atkinson and Newton Frank, the grieving District Attorney, as they dodge the slings and arrows of their gilded gutter lives.
