When Kate interrupts Liliths demonic ritual, its pretty awkward, but it gives her a great idea for a new online journal: roommatefromhell.com. Whether her roommate is unholy or just unhinged, Kates not sure. But she knows a good show when she sees it, and she convinces her bombshell pal to perform her strange ceremony at their art gallery launch. Then she gets a booker at the local rock club to let them open for a metal band, and the kids love it. They decide to take the show on the road, and somewhere along the way Kates role changes from tour manager to go-go dancer.

At the dead end of a desolate country road, a late night meeting suddenly becomes an ambush. Gay private detective Russell Quant is faced with personal threats he can't ignore, a friend who may be a foe, and a cagey client with a treacherous monkey on his back. As Quant trails a menacing blackmailer known only as Loverboy, he finds himself immersed in the midnight world of e-dating and parking lot romance. Lured to New York City, Quant tests his wit, wisdom, and wiles from the Old World grandeur of Fifth Avenue to the kaleidoscope world of Broadway's electric nightspots. The fast pace continues when Quant returns to Saskatoon, where he grapples with decoys and deceit, realizing that no one is as they appear. Threat turns into deadly reality and the need to uncover the identity of Loverboy becomes increasingly desperate.

This film noir novel begins with the Chilean government wanting to celebrate the life and work of the supposedly deceased Roberto Bolaño until they get an anonymous tip that he may still be alive and lurking. Afraid that he’ll show up and ruin their celebration — he never agreed with the politics, and he frowned on the literature being lauded in Chile; in fact, he found acceptance and fame after he moved to Spain — they ask the local police authorities to make sure he’s actually dead.
