When the beautiful girlfriend of a notorious gangster vanishes, the last man to be seen with her needs an alibi and fast. Enter Donald Lam of the Cool & Lam detective agency. Donald tracks down the two women with whom his client claims to have spent the night and the client declares the case closed.
But its not. Something about his clients story doesnt add up, and Donald cant resist the temptation to keep digging. Before he knows it, hes dug up connections to a mining scam, an illegal casino, and a double homicide plus an opportunity for an enterprising private eye to make a small fortune, if he can just stay alive long enough to cash in on it!

**โAs intellectually playful as the best of Thomas Pynchon and as sardonically warm as the best of Kurt Vonnegut,*The Heap*is both a hilarious send-up of life under late capitalism and a moving exploration of the peculiar loneliness of the early 21st century. A masterful and humane gem of a novel.โ*
