The indiscreet photo in a mistaken tweet by Austin Peebles, an aspiring young politician, leads to the biggest job ever faced by Chase and Grant, two cash-strapped criminals who are hired to remove all evidence of this picture.
The main characters are gay, but the focus of this novel is on the criminal activities, the quirky characters, and the mishaps that occur time and again. Whether the criminal is the traditional suburban mother who works as a pickpocket to raise her standard of living, the professional who does these capers for fun, or the son of a reformed criminal turned lawyer who has fantasies of being a superhero, these characters will have you laughing as you hang on your seat for the next adventure to run its course.
Throughout the novel is the underlying reason for these escapades, the political errors of Austin Peebles and a gung-ho blogger out to ruin him. If something can go wrong, it will go wrong for Chase and Grant, including an oversleeping gang member, a lost pair of underwear, and a cross-state ride hanging onto the back of a stolen garbage truck. The shocking ending brings to light an elaborate double-cross.
Strange Bedfellows will fit any adult political or mystery collection.
