Book Description
Don’t mess with the hothead—or he might just mess with you. Slater Ibáñez is only interested in two kinds of guys: the ones he wants to punch, and the ones he sleeps with. Things get interesting when they start to overlap. Hired to track down Finley, the missing boyfriend of tech worker Truax, Slater soon discovers that the job isn’t really what he was asked to do. The search for Finley leads him to an arcane book and the flying-saucer subculture, where a deep dive takes Slater out into the Mojave Desert, leaving him unsure of the precise boundaries of reality itself. With input from Doris and his operatives, and begrudging help from his romantic partner, Pike, to weasel him out of a jam, Slater cuts a dogged path to sort out what Truax really wants, and what Finley is really up to, all the while juggling high explosives, navigating his deepening narrative complex with Pike, and never failing to throw that punch. A freelance investigator, Slater trolls the dark side of Los Angeles, rooting out insurance fraud, not afraid to use whatever means necessary to get things done, and not about to hold back with his fists. A queer antihero for a new age, Slater walks the line between ordinary life and the frayed fringes of society, keeping his balance with the back-channel support he gets from main squeeze Pike, business partner Max, and operatives Andy and Etta.

Jim Kellers just graduated from the police academy with aspirations to be a police officer. All he has to do is successfully complete seventeen weeks of training on the streets. Randy Sutherland is the police officer assigned to Jim's field training. His job is to teach Jim to survive on the streets, or terminate him if he can't learn to survive on his own. Along the way, Randy will have to protect Jim from the endless pranks police officers so dearly love to play on rookies. Manny Brand will be Jim's biggest test. An escaped convict with a U.S. Marshal hot on his trail, Manny will stop at nothing to gain his freedom. And that includes killing cops. "I've already killed one cop. In Texas that means the electric chair, so what's to stop me from killing a few more?"

On a weekend break in the Mojave, psychic investigator Mason stumbles across the story of a bygone journalist, Geraldine, who expired in the desert on her way to one of the early flying saucer meet-ups.
