Narrator Oliver Wyman

Autumn in the sleepy California town of Pine Cove is turned upside down by the arrival of a Mississippi Delta
blues musician, a huge sea serpent drawn to the sound of the steel guitar, the explosion of a tanker truck at
a gas station, and a mysterious trailer that shows up in the local trailer park.

It's September in Pine Cove, California, where the tourists have finally decamped for the season, the sun is
slanting through the trees, and the local psychiatrist has just decided to switch everyone from antidepressants
to placebos without telling them. Suddenly, business is booming at the Head of the Slug Saloon, where a melancholy
blues man from the Mississippi Delta has settled in for the winter. Unfortunately, a colossal sea beast is also
drawn to the sound of the slide guitar. When a tanker truck explodes at the local gas station, it's the first
sign that all hell is about to break loose in Pine Cove.

Can the unlikely constable Theophilus Crowe curb his gonzo appetites long enough to find out who - or what - is
behind the explosion and the resulting series of mysterious crimes? Can Molly Michon, the has-been scream queen
and resident crazy lady, control her dual personalities? Can anyone explain why a town so morose is suddenly so...
libidinous? And what's the story behind the mysterious trailer that has just shown up in the back corner of the
local trailer park?

Wildly original and ferociously funny, The Lust Lizard of Melancholy Cove has enough crazy twists to give anyone
a personality disorder-and keep them in the throes of convulsive laughter at the same time.
