Botox Boulevard: Sex, Violence & the Art of Geranium Maintenance - The Implosion Saga Book 5

Mick and Jim are two incompetent, Soho-based, corporate video producers, operating at the bottom of a barrel that no one wants to scrape. They drink too much, don’t earn enough and get too many death threats.

Following on from Book Four in the Implosion Saga - Vampire Midwives - Mick heads to Hollywood to try and save Jim's soul and any other parts of him that might be useful around the office. He is forced to accept grade-A loafer, ex-apprentice and inanimate object, Wayne. as a travelling companion. Staying at a bizarre villa in the heart of Hollywood, they embark on a series of disastrous attempts to remove Jim's recently acquired demons, using a range of dubious alternative therapies.

Wayne is being pursued by shadowy Bulgarian heavies, intent on removing his iVone (the teak-veneered Bulgarian equivalent of the iPhone). Things come to a head after a visit to one of Hollywood's most notorious names, and the discovery of the true secret of the iVone. The results are a one-sided gun battle, an escape through the sewers and an explosion that shifts the San Andreas fault by six feet.

Add in devious sliver screen look-a-likes, rubberised hang gliders, outrageous cat litter TV commercials, and a big impactful finish, and you have a neat end to the Saga. Back home safe at last. But what's that incontinent wolf doing, howling outside the office door in the middle of the afternoon?
